I can say that if you were going to ovulate today then you WOULD get a neg OPK...it would have been + yesterday because those things tell you if you are going to O in the next 24-48 hours, not if you are Oing now. Theres a ton of info on peeonastick.com

HTH!

I really think it is...I will see if I can find any literature on it.

When I went in on my last cycle to confirm ovulation, my follicles were even larger than before. I was told they get the bigger after ovulation that they fill with fluid. This cycle I ovulated on Friday and when I went in on Saturday for u/s my follicles still looked like they were growing, the way they could tell I had already ovulated was by my blood work. Does your doctor do blood work to confirm once you have ovulated?

I couldn't find anything really concrete but I found lots of forum postings from people saying that their REs said they had leftover follies.

my re is away (that Jerk) i thought you were supposed to ovulate 5-7 days after your last pill of clomid 10 the most im now 12 days into taking my last pill im confused.

You may have or could be today and that is why the test is negative. Did they do lab work? They can test progesterone to see if you ovulated already. I also heard that the follicles are still there for a while after ovulation. My RE had me to ovulation prediction test starting with day 12. Said you can go anywhere between then and day 22 or so. And just because you ovulate on day 14 one month does not mean you will ovulate the same the next month. I am not always exact. Are you BD or IUI?

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
