The best time to test is in the afternoon (if possible) after you have held your urine for at least 4 hours.  When it's positive you should ovulate 12-24 hours later.  Good luck!

OPK's don't stay positive after you ovulate.....only before you ovulate.

Hi, I believe opk's detect your LH surge which happens 24 to 48 hours before ovulation, once you ovulate you level drops and you should not get a positive after ovulation.  Hope that helps
