Do lines on OPK get fainter towards AF?

[Louloubabs]

Hi all

Hoping someone might be able to help

My chart is below.

I came off of Cerazette on 15th Feb and that's when my cycle starts from on my chart. I had no withdrawal bleed (yet).

I had a positive OPK on 25th Feb (cheapie 20miu) but negative in CB digi ovulation test (although I know they're not as sensitive).

My temps seem to be doing the 'post ovulation' thing so that looks ok I think.

I'm just really hoping AF is on the way so I know my cycles are back on track. My OPK's the last few days have little to no line on them at all. Does anyone know if this is a post ovulation sign and a sign that AF is on her way?

I really hope so! Then next cycle we can actually know where we're at and I can start on the soy!

Thanks all

I think once you've ovulated and had the surge then the lines will be weaker to non existent. They should not get dark again until you are approaching ovulation and your LH surge. I don't think you can detect af being on its way by your opk stick results.

No like melly said, negative opks don't directly indicate af in on the way, but that the LH surge isn't happening and in your case you're nearing the end of your cycle. So in theory af should be en route fx! Good luck x

Thanks girls, fingers crossed it's on it's way!

I had lines all the way up to O then then obviously went darker than the control line for O but since then have been almost non existent. I wasn't sure if them being super faint to non-existent was a sign that LH has dropped so much and if that in turn, was a sign AF was on it's way.

I am so impatient and hate waiting! Haha.

Thanks again.

My lines get weaker after ovulating...they quickly dissapear

That's exactly what mine have done. Thanks hun, sounds like I may be on my way to AF then we can start actively TTC!

Thanks
