Back in January when I went off the pill first cycle I got a + opk on CD 16.

There after it averaged around CD 14.

June was the last cycle before we decided to have a break and I went back on the pill.

September 17 I got a period after coming off the pill again. Fast forward to today - CD 16 and I have stark blank negative opks and also low on the CBFM.

I usually start to fade in at least a day or two before the + opk's so this is rather odd... any thoughts????

Sometimes after coming off the Pill, it's normal to have off cycles for a month or two. Keep testing, it will happen!

It can take up to 3 months for your period to restart after coming off the pill. If you're not using any BC in the mean time, you may check 1x a month to make sure you're not pregnant. Otherwise, the only thing you can do is wait it out.

Well the monitor went to high today so that is a relief lol. I guess I was just worried because last time it didn't take this long lol.

Glad it went high for you 5, hopefully you will see a peak soon and your cycles will move back to normal!

I will also get +OPK's for about 5 days straight, I guess my body is just weird. I usually O about 36 hours in, but the OPK's stay + for a fewy days even when temps have confirmed O has passed.

Woo I have an egg symbol :) So with the CBFM what are the guidelines with timing ovulation once the egg appears? Thing is, the test stick to me if I was using a normal opk I would say is CLOSE but not quite +....??

I do have swollen vulva (sorry TMI) which I tend to get around Ovulation time too so relieved all is ok LOL sorry for going on about it *blushes*

You can totally get pos for several days around O!

Good luck with your egg symbol (and the real egg!)
