Myth or turth

Myth or Truth Ladies. I have heard a rumor and I'm wondering if it could be true. Can Ovulation tests detect pregnancy? The hormones I'm sure. is it possible to have a negative pt and an ov test will pick it up?

Yes- they can be positive for pregnancy as well but not as predictable or correct as HPT because the OPK tests for LH whereas HPT tests for HCG.

:) lol Thank you. Congratulations on your BFP. I'm really excited. I got my first pos pok test today. My most recent HPT was neg. but i have been nauseas and have a couple other symptoms. That is why I asked. Plan on taking another soon. Maybe I will get my BFP.

YES, it IS true! OPK tests are not as sensitive as HPT tests though and can be subject to higher errors.
