Opk q?

So ive just started on OPKs and not really sure how to read my result... the line in the control window is REALLY faint and the one in the test window is about twice as dark. This is a pos right? I just expected the control to be a little darker?

Thanks in advance!

Hmm, that does sound a bit odd. Maybe re-test?

sounds like a pos to me. they cant make the control too dark cos then it makes it harder to get the result to vary and go even darker when pos (if that makes sense)

are you testng between 2-7pm and not drinking fluid for 2 hrs before the test?

NeeNee - today was my 3rd test. I did 2 yesterday with the same (slightly lighter ) lines in both windows.

Myson - One of them yesterday was around 6 - the other around 9.30. this afternoon was a little after 4 and i had only had a few mouthfulls of water since lunch time.

MissusMac I see from your ticker that you've stumbled onto the fact that OPKs often double as HPTs! Congratulations!
