So confused!! What is going on?!

I am asking this question for a friend..
Is it possible to get 3 positive ovulation tests all within 35 days?? I know your body can build up and you can test positive but not actually ovulate but 3 times in 35 days??!!  she hasn't taken a pregnancy test since Friday. Also, can having a mc within the last 6 months affect what is happening??
She is taking the ovulation tests that are digital so it is definatly saying yes.

A miscarriage 6 months ago shouldnt affect her ovulation now, the thing with opks is all that they do is pick up the surge of LH, it doesnt actually say for sure that you have ovulated, they're good for letting you know that your body is getting ready too. If you temp, and see a rise in temps thats the only way to know if you actually did as once you ovulate your body produces progesterone which increase your temp, maybe she should do another preg test (a cheapie is fine) and make sure she uses first morning wee and see how she goes with that :)

Could the MC be affecting her not ovulating and just getting the surge but no egg release? Bc she has had periods since so I wouldn't think so but wasn't sure?

[stacey10]

exactly what I said, either her body is gearing up for ovulation, then doesnt actually ovulate, then it gears up again etc, or now it maybe picking up on a pregnancy

The first test was positive maybe 6 days after period then again 1 1/2weeks later and now positive again at day 35... They are all the digital tests that give a smiley face. Also, last month I believe she tested positive at two different times as well.
What could be going on??

[stacey10]

if its 3 days in a row yes, and if its 3 separate times, yes as well, all the strips do is pick up a LH surge, your body can surge and the for some reason not ovulate, then have another go etc, also  opks can pick up hcg so if the last pos was nearer the end of the 35 days and the other two were in the middle etc it could be picking up on a pregnancy now

If it is saying positive three days in a row then yes maybe. I used the strip test so it got stronger towards ovulation but if she's using a test that simply says yes or no them maybe it would read positive the days before ovulation as well. But if she's testing positive three days in different weeks then I don't think the test is reading right.
