Does a faint line on an OPK mean you're ALMOST O?
Sorry for the dumb question...
or does everyone get a faint line, whether almost O or not?
TIA

When I used the OPK's with my daughter it went both ways. Prior to and after O. maybe others had another expeirence, this was almost 3.5 years ago so maybe the tests are different now.

Re: Does a faint line on an OPK mean you're ALMOST O?
the one i took this morning was slightly lighter than the control line. i just took another one and it is darker than the control line...i think a faint line would mean that you have some of the ovulating hormone in your body, but as the day goes on that line should def get darker...

i get that faint line at different times in my cycle, i have had it while i had AF and before and after Ovulation. I think it could possible mean its leading up to your O, but i also think you just may have a higher amount of the hormone in your body on days your not Oing, hope this makes sense

My line get progressively darker as Ovulation approaches. On the day of ovulation it is a dark as the control line. The next day, the line is very faint and almost not visible. It does not fade out the way it fades in for me.
Keep testing!

Re: Does a faint line on an OPK mean you're ALMOST O?
I used to get faint and dark lines with no set way of it. Liek it didnt get progressively darker at all. I would get a faint line, and then boom sometimes a darker + the next day.
Everyones different. A faint line doesnt mean much at all.

Thanks for the remarks ladies today was my first day taking a OPK and the line was faint. I thought that might have meant something.

Re: Does a faint line on an OPK mean you're ALMOST O?
When I started at day 8 (I have shorter cycles) the line was very faint if not invisible. On day 12, the line was darker than the reference line.

Re: Does a faint line on an OPK mean you're ALMOST O?
Funny you ask as I was just wondering that today!!
Yesterday the second line was there but not as dark as the control line which means negative, but today it was even lighter --- so im thinking maybe i missed my surge and didnt even realize it?? i dont get those things

I just thought the same thing....I've been OPKing all week & got a faint line Fri. & then another faint line yesterday (I've yet to test today) but I'm past CD14 & it just seems late to me. I hope I didn't miss it
