OPK ladies

[thoseareradishes]

Wondfo from Amazon. I use them once a day, starting about CD9 (I ovulate between CD11 and 17). Sometimes I'll test twice a day to see how long my surge lasts. I test in the mid-morning, and sometimes at night.

Wondfos. I start testing a little later, but that's cuz I have long cycles. And I usually test once a day, until I get a + or close to one and then I'll test twice a day to be sure I catch it.

I've been totally slacking this month. Pretty sure I know when I O'd, but TWICE! I left the tests in the bathroom and forgot about them. Dammit.

Wondfos. I start around day 8 or 9 and do one or two a day. My RE recommonds 2nd morning urine, so I try to remember to take one to work and test there. I am better at remembering to do it when I get home from work.

Also Wondfos, because they are super-chaep to buy in bulk from Amazon (and they come with a few pregnancy tests too, which hopefully I will use one of these cycles).

I test twice a day starting at about CD10. I use first morning urine, then try to test late afternoon when I get home from work. I can't take OPKs to work, so that's the best I can do.

I have fertility issues which can make opks's touchy and given false results so I stuck with midstream UK hospital grade ones from ebay.
Super cheap 15 opks's plus a hpt for $18. They seemed to be the only ones that I wasn't driving myself crazy interpeting a line b/c the color was "off" or something, was always the only ones I could get a clear positive on. Which is crazy b/c I also used the clear blue monitor and that never gave me "peak" results even when I had positive opk's, had O spotting and cramp and was sure I was ovulating (damn machine).

I am also using the Wondfos. I started testing at CD 12 and tested 2x per day (per the recommendation on the stickie).

I bought Wondfo's. I had two + on CD 11 and one + on CD12. I think it was negative by that evening.

I bought a pack on Amazon that had 30 OPK and 10 pregnancy tests for about $14!

I set the stopwatch on my phone. I'd forget otherwise- 5 minutes goes by so quickly sometimes!

I use Wondfos. I've only used them for two cycles so far, and those two cycles I've ovulated on CD 18-19, so I don't think I'm going to start using them until CD 15 this time. But we'll see.

I use the internet cheapies (not Wondfos, but another brand) and the CBE digital opk. I have my O date narrowed down to just a few days (right around CD 16/17) so I start using them on CD 12ish and don't bother using them after the 2nd day of positive OPK results. I can usually get the box of 20 to last 2 - 3 months (depending on if I test 2 times a day or 1).

[HoneySpider]

I use the Wondfos too. I usually test twice a day when I know I'm getting near.

Are you outside the US, or not buying enough to qualify for free shipping? There's so much crap on Amazon I can always use, I don't think I've ever paid for shipping.

Hello there anonnani,

If you don't mind...
I would love to know more about the opks you mentioned...the wondofos always make me cross-eyed! I also used the clear blue monitor and never got a clear surge...

I have fertility issues also and I would like to try them...

Please and thanks

Amazon Prime FTW! Sooooo worth it, especially for Christmas shopping. And I've found that buying drug store type items is often cheaper via Amazon. Prime gives you free 2 day shipping.

Amazon Prime is the Shiz. I paid like $13.95 for 50 OPK's and 10 Pregnancy tests. DEAL. I O between CD 10 - CD 17 so I start testing tonight. Then it's a BD marathon.
