Just wondering if anyone tested with their OPK strips during the 2WW. I thought that once you O'd the LH was so minimal in your system that the line would be either non-existant or very faint. I just POAS, cause I had to and a medium darkish line showed up. I mean it was light enough that I know I'm not going to O, but it wasn't very faint either. Just curious. I've heard that some women test for pregnancy with an OPK, since the hormones are similar, but would it be able to pick up such a small trace this early on??
I'm just full of questions today.

I haven't posted here in about 6 months or so, but I saw your post and wanted to respond. Here is a picture of my opk (green) and my hpt (blue) at about 13 dpo. It worked for me.

I have always gotten those medium lines when I wasn't o'ing, but when I AM o'ing there is NO QUESTION that they are super dark and positive. I think that is pretty normal to see those medium-light lines- at least it was fore me!!!
