New here and have a ???

Hello everyone!

I'm new to the LIF boards but I was an avid poster on the LIW boards. I decided I should officially say hello and make myself known to you guys. DH and I just got married on October 7th and are starting our new life together! Chat Icon

So my question, which is going to probably sound stupid to you guys (but I must know)....what does OPK mean? I couldn't find it on the lingo list. Im sure it has something to do with ovulation but its just driving me crazy not knowing what the acronym stands for. TIA guys! And happy baby making to you all!

OPK = Ovulation Predictor Kit

you can buy them in the stores and they tell you approx when you are ovulating.

Good Question!

how does it predict when youre ovulating? does it work the same way as the websites that predict ovulation? I've never heard of these before.

They detect a surge in the lutenizing hormone, which indicates that you'll ovulate w/i the next 12-36 hours.
