Just curious if you can get an OPK+ after you've ovulated because there will still be LH in your body?


Meaning, if I have an OPK+ yesterday and it's OPK- today that logically means I've ovulated.


But what if I have OPK+ yesterday and again today?

Hey,
When you get your LH Surge it doesn't necessarily mean you're ovulating that very moment, it just means the body is preparing to ovulate or is already ovulating (the LH surge can last up to a few days and ovulation will take place somewhere in that time frame). Once it's negative again you can be pretty certain it's taken place. My advice is keep checking everyday until it goes negative for 2 consecutive days then stop checking, that way you'll have a pretty good idea that it's happened.
