    Ovulation and E4D question

    I'm not sure when I ovulated - I seem to have missed the LH surge and haven't seen a positive one this month. (Had similar issues when conceiving my son, so we DTD every second day for a month) Anyway, if I'm not sure when I ovulate, will doing e4d for a month or longer sway girl? Just DTD every 4 days? Then I'm surely bound to hit my fertile window at some point right?
    Many thanks

    If you're not temping to confirm ovulation then yes, I'd DTD every 4 days just in case otherwise you may miss an opportunity to conceive.

    Yes that's at least half of the point of the e4d method - to help people who never get positive OPK.

    What you may want to do, rather than going right to every 4 days, is try every 5 or even 6 days at first. That way you'd be absolutely completely and totally sure you're in with one attempt, but at the same time you have a chance of "lucking" your way into perfect timing. It would be kinda sorta like starting off with one at pos OPK, doing that for a couple months, and then going to e4d. But, e4d has had good results too, it is just newer and I don't have the same level of faith that I do in the one attempt just yet.
