I just bought my first set of ovulation tests. I am working with an RE and we are monitoring this cycle. Do You know if I am supposed to track also with temps and ovulatin testing?

You should ask your RE -- with monitoring you should not need to temp or use OPKs, but some REs have you use OPKs as back up to make sure you don't surge in between monitoring appointments (mine did, but we never caught my surge with OPKs before we caught
Married my wife 8/2007 ~ TTC #1 since 7/2011 9 IUIs = 9 BFNs IVF October 2012: 22 eggs retrieved, 17 fertilized, 5 frozen ET #1: 1 blast = BFP; Blighted ovum discovered at 7w5d; D&E FET #1: 1 blast = BFP; Missed m/c discovered at 9w5d; D&E Karyotyping: normal ~ RPL Testing: normal ~ Hysteroscopy: normal FET #2: 1 blast transferred 10/25; BFP 10/31! EDD 7/13/14 ~ Induced at 37w4d due to pre-eclampsia ~ Born on 6/28/14 *Everyone welcome*
Our RE had us use OPK between our cd12 monitoring and our scheduled trigger. So we only used them for a couple of days. This was to make sure I wasn't surging before I triggered so we could move the IUI if I tested positive prior to my trig

I am using OPKs for my cycle in May. My RE told me to use them starting on cd9, as my cycles are like clockwork. I'm not doing the whole monitoring package for this upcoming cycle, so OPKs and temping are a must for me!

Thanks for all the advice. I am not taking meds so the OPK's should work. I'm going to ask my RE on my monitoring appointment if I Should start using Them just in case.
