1: I stopped taking fertilaid
2: I ran out of sperm friendly lube and used coconut oil. That didnt exactly leave me with an infection, but i did feel odd the next day. The day after that everything seemed back to normal. But I am wondering if a slight PH shift would cause anything
3. Last and most crazy - could I be pregnant? This is one of first months we started to BD CD 6. If we actually timed things right would that cause a negative OPK?
or is it just because Im old?
Re: 2WW/ Negative OPK/ HELP!!
I recommend Google...or really any book about fertility.
1. Read the "Newbies read this first" pinned post at the top of the page.
2. It's against the terms of use to ask if you're pregnant.
3. I don't know if you understand how opks work.
If you have been TTC for 2yrs, please go to an RE for evaluation.
Despite the “coconut oil is great for EVERYTHING” hype, please discuss with your doctor the impact of putting food items in your lady bits.
Actually though you should probably see a doctor.

OP, as many of the other ladies have mentioned, it's against TOU to ask if you're pregnant. +1 recommend going to a doctor a) TTC for over a year b) anovulation for two cycles in a row and c) medical opinion regarding coconut oil as lube. I also recommend (as previously stated) reading the newbie guide if you plan to continue participating here.
Not even going to attempt to voice my personal opinion regarding the coconut oil. Although I gotta ask why in the world would you do that? Like... did you google alternative lube methods? Or just figure coconut oil is good lets give it a go? #morbidcuriousity

Also, OP, you're a horrible person, and you obviously have no idea how OPKs work. They come with instructions. I suggest reading them.
And yes, you can have communities and gain friendships over the internet. This is 2017 - almost 2018! - and it's not uncommon to gain relationships of all types over the internet. Just because you have a hard time making friends doesn't mean others do. So.
