OPK's
What kind of OPK's are you buying, and where from?? With OPK's how often are you testing each month??

Re: OPK's
I've tried a few and have never detected my O. But, I miscarried in Feb and am still not regular so I may be doing it at the wrong times. This month I bought a pack of 15 and 5 pregnancy tests from early-pregnancy.com and started them on CD13. I'll test until I O or get AF.

Re: OPK's
I just started using OPK's this month. I bought the dip test strips from this site. I got a deal on a 25 pack, and it worked out to be like 66 cents each. I tested 7 days this cycle. I found the tests to be fairly easy to use and interpret.

Did you purchase the ovulation test strips, or the Ovulation Midstream Tests??

Re: OPK's
I just used OPKs for the first time this month. I bought the 7 pack of Answer at CVS. I think it was about $18. I tested 8 times...started Day 12 and did the last one on Day 18. I got three positives and I thought they were very easy to read. Good luck!

Re: OPK's
I use the drugstore brand (CVS, Duane Reade, etc.). They are cheaper than name brands ($17-$21). CVS has been the cheapest for me so far. The directions in the kit tell you when to start testing based upon the length of your cycle. The 7 tests that come in the kit are usually enough for one month.

Re: OPK's
I used the ones from Dollar Tree. At first I didn't quite understand the whole darker or just as dark line thing, but as soon as it detected the surge the first time it was crystal clear what the directions meant.
