    OPKs as pregnancy tests?

    I have read somewhere that you can use an OPK as a pregnancy test?

    I just used a Confirm test, simply because I didn't have any HPTs in the house, and it has come up with 2 strong lines. Does this mean I could be pregnant??

    I think I have just answered my own question... they can be unreliable for women with PCOS, which I am.

    Damn! I actually got a little excited this morning.

    I used a OPK test with DS and I have PCOS and it did come up positive.. So it can happen.

    Unfortunately for me it didn't work, I wasn't pregnant.

    Sorry to hear that hun...crossing fingers you get a BFP soon!

    I found out I was PG with bubs number 2 with an OPK, but still confirmed it with a proper PG test....
