    with PCOS, due to the hormones being "hinky" (for want of a better word!) you'll almost always get a positive OPK due to the level of LH (from memory) that is circulating all the time

    Yes, baseline LH levels will show up as a positive all the time, so you won't detect an actual real positive.
