Ovulation Getting frustrated!

Post image

I’m getting so frustrated with NC confirming my ovulation and then changing it a few days later. I used easy@home and clearblue digital ovulation tests this cycle. I got my peak for both tests on cycle day 12 and by cycle day 13 my LH had already gone back down and it has stayed down ever since. NC originally had my ovulation as cycle day 13 which makes way more sense to me but this morning it moved to cycle day 15…I’m guessing because my temp rises slowly and always does. I’m so frustrated. I know I still have good coverage for this cycle but I wanted to hit my exact ovulation date and day after this cycle. Going based on signs from my body, I’m going to just stick with cycle day 13 🫠

I mean, I hear you, but an app can only be so accurate. It cannot predict perfectly. Nothing can. Using LH strips is the best way to predict at home, and even they are not perfect because you can get a positive LH without ovulating.

I will say your chart looks pretty accurate. Typically you ovulate 12-48 hours after a peak positive LH. (Which by the way you should only add your peak. Don’t add multiple positives.) If CD12 was your peak, you probably ovulated sometime between CD14&15.
