the line on ovulation strips

[mysonroger]

hello. i've never used ovulation tests before. I have the Ovutel Ovunow Ovulation tests. over the past two days there has been a faint line in the Test area, but not as dark as the control line. Today's test line looked darker than yesterdays.

So, does the test line keep on getting darker in the lead up to ovulation?? the kit says that the test line needs to be darker than, or the same as, the control line to indicate ovulation.

has anyone had any experience with these kits....
many thanks

Hi - yes I find that the line gets darker until I finally get a + then it fades away again to a -. This cycle I had a + for 24 hours before it faded away to nothing. I buy the cheapish opk's from Lullaby Conceptions so I can test 2-3 times a day around when I expect to o. Good luck I hope you get the dark + soon. But incase they don't work for you - if you see ewcm don't waste any time ;)
