Pregnancy tests, ovulation and ovulation tests
Ovulation tests and temperatures
mama
Hi everyone,
Could someone take a quick look for me? I'm a bit confused.
I always thought (maybe this is just how it is) that I have a luteal phase of 14 days.
But I've started doubting that since the weekend.
On Saturday night I had a negative ovulation test – at least it was darker than usual but still not positive (2BS).
Sunday morning (6:15) I got the usual smiley face, and the 2BS test was also darker for a moment. So my ovulation was coming up. However, on Sunday afternoon I had egg pain that lasted into the night, and this morning my temperature had risen by 0.1. I always thought I had ovulated when my temp hit 36.7, and then it rises 0.1 degrees daily until it reaches 36.9 or 37.00. Now I'm wondering: do I actually have a 14-day luteal phase? Or is it maybe shorter, and has my ovulation always been a bit later than I thought? I've attached a photo – would someone mind checking if I've got it right... If I assume ovulation happens when I have a temp of 36.7, then ovulation occurred less than 12 to 14 hours after the positive ovulation test (while they say you can expect ovulation between 24 and 48 hours after a positive test). If I look at my temp chart and the temperatures, maybe I recorded my ovulation too early, and my luteal phase is not 14 but 11 or 12 days...
Can someone help me figure this out? ;-)
Love

Well, it's not an exact science anyway. I always had exactly 10 days between my positive ovulation test and my period. My last ovulation was clearly accompanied by egg pain around 19:00, while my positive ovulation test was that morning. My temperature always goes up 3 days after a positive ovulation test. So both my ovulation tests and my temperature don't really follow the 'rules'. As long as you have regular sex around ovulation, you're always good with timing. -

I also tried combining ovulation tests and temperature tracking this month, but it didn't work out for me either
3 days in a row with a positive ovulation test while I already had a temperature dip on the first positive day. That would mean I ovulated a few hours before my first positive ovulation test
I've accepted that I won't get any clearer results and just hope it's over with regarding my LH. It varies for me, I think. Somewhere between 10 and 14 days, that's my impression.
