trust the OPK over the app. the OPK tells you if your hormone level is spiking, the app just guesses a date based on your normal cycle length. the only real way to time it perfectly (besides bloodwork) is to temp for a few months and follow the pattern, but overal theres absolutely no reason to trust an app over an OPK, assuming you are reading the OPK correctly (test line as dark or darker than control). good luck!

this!
the apps are just a guess...the opk is showing levels of hormones in your system...it is definitely more accurate.

Re: OPK and frustrated and confused

sorry this is the 1st month i was using the OPK tests
The lines are the same shade, but the shade is lighter than the box demo.

has this ever happened?
