Confused - RE visit - -- *UPDATE #2 - HELP!!!!!**
Yesterday afternoon i got ewcm so i tested with the clearblue easy and it was positive. So i assume i am going to ovulate today or by tomorrow latest.
I go to RE this morning for sono - egg on 1 side is 19. Had bloodwork done and said that the test must have been wrong - levels are not showing ovulation yet
Ive used these test for a while and they seem very accurate to me (worked both times i got pg).
Does the bloodwork check the levels of the same hormone or something different? Do they just look for a higher hormone level than the test kits so predict more closely ie my blood levels tomorrow will be higher since i will probably o tomorrow but the test kits give you the 2 day notice
Any insight to this would be appreciated.....
TIA
** Update **
they had me come in again this morning and when they did the sono the egg was released . I havent gotten the bloodwork results back yet to see if there is a surge but they are stumped as to why my LH was only 7 yesterday.
Has anyone heard of this?
And it looks like the opk was right all along
*****UPDATE #2******
the re office just called and said i still havent surged! The LH is still 7 and prog is 0.2 estrogen 165 So they dont think i ovulated yet everything else is suggesting i did. - the follicle that was there is gone - i had EWCM for a few days and is gone today??
Is it possible that i O'd and the bloodwork is just not showing it? They want me to come back on friday for more bloodwork and sono They think i havent O'd yet??
Side note - i usually O around day 12 so this would have been normal cycle

Confused - RE visit - monitored cycle
I can't say 100% how those tests work, but I can tell you that I got a false positive OPK once. It was during my IUI cycle and I called the RE's office in a panic b/c I wasn't sure what my next steps were. I went into the office for bloodwork and sono and they determined that I was not even close to O'ing yet. Trust the blood test and sono over the OPK.
Did the RE give you further instructions? I was told to come back a week later, they did another sono determined I had 2 follies of a good size and so I was told to get the trigger shot and sch my IUIs.

Re: Confused - RE visit - monitored cycle
I just had a FET and I was monitored daily starting CD7. Looking back at my notes (I'm crazy and try to track everything)... I got my on CD 11 and had a 19mm follicle. I had blood and sono until ovulation, which was 2 days later (confirmed by blood and sono). I would assume based on your OPK and size of follicle you will be ovulating within the next 48 hrs.

Re: Confused - RE visit - monitored cycle
This cycle I used an OPK and got a smiley and scheduled my IUI for the next day. They didn't test me or give me a sono so I am hoping it was accurate. My blood work from the previous two days was neg so I thought it was right. Now you have me nervous!
I would trust the blood work but it sounds like you should be Oing anytime now Good luck

Glad im not the only one confused
All my other follies were tiny so that was presumed to be the "one" and when i asked the same question about it being gone - the nurse mumbled something about maybe the tech missed it (which im sure she didnt cause she was amazed herself that it was gone so she kept looking around for it)
