OPK False positive?

Can you get a false positive on an OPK? What factors would produce a false positive? I have done test five days now at about same time every day. Testing about 10am. Had nothing to eat or drink two hours before testing (except today had coffee 1 3/4 hours ago). Was confused on day 3 of testing (could not tell if positive or not - I thought it was until I saw the result today). Today, definitely positive. Today is CD 15 on a 29 day C. I am proably obsessing, but want to make sure. Thanks for the support.

Lets bump this one up for some answers too! I beleive (though not an OPK user) that they detect the hormone surge...though you can possible have a hormone surge and not ovulate. This is rare, so I'd say go with the +++ and have fun with the BD fest!

GL to you!
