ok so i have used an opk here and there and i have always gotten some sorta line. not ever as dark as the control.

i just took one. and it was stark white... well there is a little bit of a pink tinge but its not far from being invalid. if i had to take a pic you would think its starkers!

is this indicative that i could have ovulated or that i am nowhere near ovulation???

Do you mean the control line didn't show up either? It's not invalid if your test line is stark white, that can happen. Most have a bit of color on their test line all the time, some have stark white control lines until right before O they see some color. Good luck!

Looking at your chart I'm pretty sure you haven't Oed. Usually the line gets darker then fades out, but I think it can still fluxuate some. Also your body could be gearing up to try and O then doesn't. Are you BFing?

It doesn't look to me like you've O'd yet either. Was the control line there? If there was a control line that I would assume it's valid. I can get a white test line a few days before I O.

I wouldn't get too down yet. Usually I get fertile CM for about 5 days before O... so 3 days is definitely normal.

Look at it this way... every day you have fertile CM and no + OPK or temp spike, it's another day you have a chance to pack some swimmers in there to intercept that eggie!!

Best of Luck to you!!
