I don't know all the abrv. so I am not sure what an OPK is, but I used a home ovulation kit (baught it at HEB for like $10). My periods are never regular so I never know when I am ovulating. My doc always just said to take the test on day 14 of my cycle. I did that and the lines weren't as dark as the test said they should be, but we tried anyway. I did that two times, the second time I went to have an IUI though (it worked). I have irregular periods because I have PCOS.
I've read that it (decidual bleeding) can affect the accuracy of an hpt as well.. I'm not having much luck finding anyone that has Actually experienced decidual bleeding while pregnancy 1st hand though.
Im gald to see that there are women out there that ovulate close to their period! Maybe thats why I keep missing my chance! I think im still going to buy a OPK since my cycles have been so unpredictable! Right now, Im having creamy, very wet CM so I dont know if I am going to ovulate soon, or if I already did since AF just left! Im so confused, Im a wreck! Hopefully these OPK's will give me some relief!
Also, has anyone ever heard of or experienced decidual bleeding? I read a little info on it and it sound similar to the bleeding or "period" (whatever it was!!!) I just had. Does it that type of bleeding affect your HPT? It says your horomones are out of whack and it causes you to shed parts of your uterus but I am wondering if that might affect the results of a urine test??? Just a thought!
yes i beleive its possible i OV the day following my period and i beleive sometimes i OV right on the last day of my period. so i think anything is possible.
I got pregnant at the end of my period, and people are always saying that isnt possible..
I am living proof that it IS possible! =)
