If you are about to ovulate...
Why can't you use FMU to test on an OPK?
Just wondering. I know that your levels get higher throughout the day-- but, you CAN test then right?

I don't know it might work for some people. I tried testing in the morning and I never got a + so I switched to the afternoon around 4 and that has worked for me.

Re: If you are about to ovulate...
From peeonastick.com:
10. Should I use first morning urine (FMU) with OPK's?
No. LH is synthesized early in the day, and is not metabolized into your urine until later. So, as a rule, you are more likely to catch your surge later in the day. ("They" say you should test sometime around 2-4 p.m., but I've had fine luck at 10 p.m.-midnight.) Using FMU may not be a problem for you, but if you do not detect a surge during the cycle you use FMU, try testing later during the next cycle.
Note: the Clearblue Fertility Monitor is the exception. The FM Monitor does require FMU.
