Another OPK ? of course - LOL

This one is on the result time.

Some say on the box results in 40 seconds, etc... but can be up to 5 mins, some even say 10 mins. From my experience, when I use them seems like right away you get the results and I usually toss it right after that, am I not waiting enough and jumping the gun too soon?? Chat Icon

hmmm... I would go by whatever the box says for the test you are taking. I think that would be the most accurate. I don't use OPK's sorry.

Thank you :)

For example most do say "Results in as little as 5 seconds, yada, yada" and then say BUT, for the most accurate it can take up to 5 min's. IMO the 5 seconds is all you need and that is what I am trying to figure out & make sure of.

Am I only waiting lets say a minute, reading the results, tossing it and then 5 mins later, the other line magically appears Chat Icon

Just seeing what you other ladies have experienced

Mine says results in up to 10 minutes, so I usually keep it around for the full 10, then toss it.

I would wait the full time limit and only then toss it. But try not to look at it AFTER the time limit has passed, since the results can be skewed if you look at it after.
