Testing out HCG shot

I am doing an HCG booster (after ovulation) to help with my short luteal phase. So far I have always gotten a + OPK, ovulated 2 days later, did the booster another 2 days after that and then tested on 12 DPO. The trigger has always been out of my system by then and if I have gotten a + HPT it is on 13 DPO.

Since this cycle Fertility Friend is messing with me and saying I ovulated 2 days earlier than I think I did, I am wondering if I should test out the HCG shot.

Have any of you done this? Did you just buy dollar store cheapies? Did it stress you out more? Just curious.

Dx: PCOS and short luteal phase
18 cycles (3 with our RE) - Metformin + Clomid + HCG booster did the trick!
