I voted Yes. You can see on my charts that I always get a + opk before I ovulate. However, I think taking opks is extremely annoying. I hate to hold my pee because I usually go about once an hour during waking hours.

Baby N conceived after 1 miscarriage and more than 2 years of TTC. Diagnosis was low sperm count. We found success after 3 months of anastrozole to increase DH's testosterone and one IUI.

I've never seen a + and this is my 3rd cycle using them. I do think I O'd 2 cycles ago----I had MAJOR eewcm and was on vacation and didn't test---just assumed I missed what would've been my + opt days.
I feel pretty confident that they are accurately predicting when I'm ovulating. Since I don't chart, I can't say for certain, but I do consistently get my period about 2 weeks after a + OPK.
Loss #1 (missed miscarriage) 14 weeks
Loss #2 (missed miscarriage) 10 weeks
Loss #3 (chemical pregnancy)
Loss #4 (chemical pregnancy)
Loss #5 (chemical pregnancy)
i voted yes but it varies from month to month. sometimes they go positive but give me less than 24 hours notice (i know because i've been monitored with u/s the past couple of cycles). i think though that is because i have pcos.
They work for me. But if you're not charting, remember that ovulation is within 48 hours of the positive. I always get positives about two days before I actually ovulate.

Last cycle I'm not sure I O'd.........
We'll see if I get a + this go 'round.
