How many days in a row can you get a positive ovulation?

The short answer: not long. Eggs are only viable for about 24 hours after they’re released. That, combined with the 36 hours between a positive ovulation test and ovulation, means you may only have about 60 hours (or 2 ½ days) during your cycle when conception is even possible.

What does 4 days of positive ovulation tests mean?

An OPK will show a line if the LH levels are over a certain level. LH peaks shortly before ovulation (triggering ovulation), and then falls. So it is most likely you are seeing 4 days of lines on OPKs as levels of LH gradually rise, peak and fall in your body.

Can LH surge multiple times a month?

Yes, it’s possible to ovulate twice, but the process is a bit complicated. During your menstrual cycle, there may be multiple waves of follicular growth, and while ovulation only happens once, the final LH surge can cause you to ovulate two (or more) eggs at the same time.

What does it mean if you have no LH surge?

A negative LH test does not mean that you’re not fertile, or that ovulation will not occur. This only means that no LH surge has been detected at the time you tested, so it is encouraged to keep testing. You may need to test more often, 2-3 times a day to catch the surge.

Why does ovulation test keep saying negative?

The ovulation test can be negative for the following reasons: The peak time of luteinizing hormone is short, and you missed it (that’s why it’s important to do tests twice a day).

Can you get pregnant even if ovulation test negative?

Along with pregnancy tests, it is possible to get a negative result on your ovulation test when you are in fact ovulating. One thing you can do to avoid getting a false-negative test result is to be sure you are testing early or late enough in your cycle.

Combining ovulation test results with other tracking methods, like basal body temperature monitoring can help confirm ovulation.
