Trying to Get Pregnant

Do OPK'S expire??

I bought the Target Up and Up brand of OPK strips last month to try to catch my surge. It said on the instructions that they expire after 30 days. Does anyone know if that does happen that you are not supposed to use them after 30 days?

I have a few left from last month and I wanted to check before I used them. Thanks!

Re: Do OPK'S expire??

  • Yes, they do expire and no I would not use them after the expiration date. For me catching my surge is not worth saving a few dollars. I would buy new ones and have piece of mind that they are working properly.

  • Sorry, I've never used Target brand. I use Wondfo OPK's off Amazon and they are usually good for at least a year (expiration date printed on them) but they are individually sealed. If the Target ones aren't... I'd probably buy new ones.

  • There should be an exp date on the package. I would assume they mean once they are opened out of their individual pouches they will exp in 30 days.
