    Question OPK+ but low temps

    Hello,

    I havent been temping for awhile but thought I would around o this month..

    So I got an OPK+ but my temp is still low..

    It use to go up after o..

    Is it possible I didnt release an egg this month..??

    Here is my chart

    Eng, if you got a +OPK today and your temp is low today you probably haven't O'd yet. Most women O around 24-48hrs after a +OPK - it can vary though. I'm pretty sure that the LH surge which detects the lead up to O isn't found in the luteal phase.

    I'm not really familiar with FF so can't really give you an interpretation based on FF chart.

    It can happen that you don't release an egg, but I don't think it is common. I think with an anovulatory cycle you would see flat temps throughout the cycle - not a biphasic chart.

    I also read that you can O more than once a cycle, but this is rare.

    Hi to everyone - so busy at work will try and do some persies later. Hope everyone is well.

    I have no idea about low rises.. Im guessing I have a low chance of getting pg this month..

    Hey Eng. By looking at your temps I would say you O'd on Thursday (CD17). You are likely to release an egg 24 - 36 hours after the positive OPK so that's pretty close to fitting. It's too hard to tell due to the lack of pre O temps. Do you get much EWCM? I noticed you have 2 days of CP checking noted, did you check any other days? I find if my temps are playing havoc, I can always tell by my CM & CP

    You could be right about oing on cd17 but i dont think I have ever o'd that late.

    I normally dont get that much EWCM but I have added my other charts to the link above.

    Also I havent ever checked my cp, all I can really say is that was low..

    Thank you for looking at my chart..

    Hi I am currently preg, I o'd at some crazily late date, never ever happened before and most likely won't happen again..I hope you DTD anyway, I reckon you just never know, often its the cycles that you don't think you stand a chance!!!
    Good luck.

    AWW thanks!!!
    With our previous baby we took 18 months to get our BFP, taking every op, finally it happened in a cycle that we were completely over DTD and even when I got my positve LH test we did'nt bother until the next day, I spent the next 2 weeks beating myself up cause we did'nt take every op, only to get a BFP a few days later.
    I always o'd between day 10-12, this time it must have been day 20 or later??? So late I did'nt even think about a BFP being a possibilty...until I got MS!!!
    Again good luck, fingers crossed that it was enough DTD... now for that dreaded TWW.

    ENG Even if you O'd on CD 17, that was only two days after you DTD so there is still a huge chance. Just a better chance of a girl so they would say lol. Good luck

    BLACKDUCKIES Congrats to you hun. Do you know the sex of your baby?

    Good luck with the FS appointment, maybe you won't need it!!! Tis what happened to us, and another 3 couples. If not ...good to have some paper work to show them.
    Georgi another little girl, which is good seeing as she is unexpected and will have to share a room with one of her sisters.
