So for most people does this put them at one day prior to ovulation? For me that was the case (or pretty darn close i think) but i wondered is that the case for everyone?

Attempt at pos opk question

I think if you attempt at pos opk, it puts you 24-36 hours before ovulation. I don't know my exact o day, just dtd at pos opk and it stayed pos for days!

I was wondering as well becausei usually get a + opk the day of ovulation and I heard by then its too late. Is that true? The reason I know my positive is the day of ov is because I always get bad cramps that day.

You can getting cramping before, during and after ovulation. It's not a reliable sign to determine exact O. In fact, its near impossible to determine exact O, unless you're having 24 hour u/s monitoring
Most women will O 8 - 48 hours after first +OPK...Sept 2008 & successful boy sway

No not at all. The eggie can live up to 12 hours. The spermies need to travel about seven inches from the cervix through the uterus to the fallopian tubes. They travel at a rate of roughly an inch every 15 minutes. The fastest swimmers may find the egg in as little as 45 minutes, while the slowest can take up to 12 hours. If they don't find an egg in the fallopian tubes at the time of intercourse, the sperm can wait there in a resting stage for up to 72 hours.
Everything you ever needed to know about sperm meets egg, LOL. In a nutshell, since we can't reliably pinpoint O, we go with first +OPK because we know that O will follow shortly...Sept 2008 & successful boy sway

Thank u so much for the quick reply that was very informative
and im sorry I know this is another totally random question but ive noticed alot of ladies making husbands abstain for up to 7 days and then 1 attempt at pos opk. Why is that? Ive heard sperm that isnt ejaculated every 4 days become worse quality or die off? Is that not true? I would like to try that next month if im not pregnant just curious about y that method works and how. Im ttc girl
