On the ovulation predictors, it will give you a certain cycle day on which to test.

You definitely want to test before you think you're ovulating, since the test detects a surge in your hormones that occurs 24-36 hours BEFORE ovulation.

The day you start testing will vary based on your cycle length.

Good luck! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Yes. The first day of your period is cycle day 1 (CD1) and you count all the way until th next first day of period.
As a rough estimate, some people start POAS by CD10-12 and then keep going. You may run out of sticks and need more before you get your +OPK
