New to TTC & OPK help

Hi ladies I've been TTC lurking for a while, I was just getting familiar with everything in the TTC world. We left to chance for the last few months with no luck, so we're diving in now.

I have an OPK question... I have irregular cycles (40 day, then 100+, then 30 something, etc..) This is my 1st month using an OPK and I'm up to day 30 with no ... should I bother continuing for this cycle? I feel like I'm wasting tests, only 1 left in the box, but I have another if I should continue..

Re: New to TTC & OPK help

Im sort of new to this too, but have you gone to the doctor to see why your cycles are so long?

and welcome!

I'm not familiar with irregular cycles but I believe Red Raspberry leaf tea can help regulate them...

Welcome and good luck!

Re: New to TTC & OPK help

i have crazy cycles as well..im on cd66 with no af and no bfp...i have been using opks forever and never get a ..i have pcos as well..but with my crazy cycles it gets expensive...so i have now been temping and hopefull that works..

i would def suggest it if u have long cycles cause the opks can get expensive and at least in my case if i do O..which i dont on my own anyway..i never know when to use the opk anyway


hth good luck

Re: New to TTC & OPK help

with long irregular cycles like that, i would suggest seeing the dr to see whats going on. You can also try temping to confirm when you O. OPKs will help predict when you O but it doesnt confirm it, plus if ur cycles are that long and irregular it can get expensive.

good luck!
