So how will I avoid the late ovulation issue. As this may have been the issue this month with my period being late

Last month I wasn’t getting a high reading peak the usual time I do each month so I kept using the clearblue sticks as couldn’t understand why I was not getting a high or a peak as it would have happened earlier in the month. I took a clearblue digital test and it gave me a solid smiley face so I took that as my peak. The opk was getting high so I went with that and had the attempt

Also atomic. I have noticed that I have a lot of ewcm a few days after my period and it drys up slightly after ovulation. So I have ewcm usually for around 7/8 days in my cycle

You are going to need to start having attempts every 4 days (in the 72 hour pattern) because you are missing ovulation due to the OPK not working right for you.

Many, many of us (myself included) have EWCM for 7-10 days starting after our periods and going till ovulation, even a day or two after.

OPK can be false positive or false negative unfortunately. I think you need to do the e4d method instead.

Just to be sure you understand, the period being late doesn't cause issues itself. The period is late because ovulation was late. So if you had an attempt thinking you were ovulating at a certain time, only to find that you actually were ovulating a few days later (even just 1-2 days can mean the difference between conceiving and not) then you didn't even really have a chance of conception. But it didnt' have to do with your period, it was your ovulation that was later than you thought.

Thanks atomic. This month you’re right I defo ovulated late, usually I don’t as been tracking for a while. And I think I got frustrated with ovulating late so had the attempt. I understand now that it was too early.

The clear blue digital stick was a solid smiley face so I went with that rather than the opk as I was getting frustrated by not getting a high or peak opk. Just to confirm shall I have attempt on high opk this month or peak? My paperwork is upstairs so just double checking, want to go with this month and next month if I’m not pregnant go with the every 4 days
