Can ovulation tests be incorrect?

Answer 1

I guess you are not getting a positive result around the time a woman "should" ovulate? Cycle days 12-15 or whatever? I can tell you from experience I took many OPKs and never got a positive, come to find out I was ovulating later in my cycle. I am pregnant right now and conceived around cycle day 19!!! My periods were very regular, every 29-30 days. I would have never suspected a thing! If you are having regular priods, then maybe try to test like all month on month. I bet you get your positive, early or late!

Answer 2

"Unfortunately, ovulation predictor kits are not 100% accurate and you can in fact register a false positive result. What this means is that even though you are in fact, not ovulating, the kit appears to show that you are.
•Ovulation predictor kits do not provide a measurement of your LH levels. They merely tell you whether you are or are not experiencing an LH surge.
•It is possible for a woman to experience a false luteinizing hormone surges. In other words, her body will produce a surge of LH, regardless of her ovulatory activity.
•Depending upon how often you do a test, you may miss the “window period” in which the positive test result will appear. Your LH levels may surge for a shorter period than is possible to capture in the time frame in which you ordinarily take the tests.
•If you have used a urine sample that has been left to sit for some time, it may not give an accurate result because LH breaks down and dissipates in time.
•Using a first-thing-in-the-morning urine sample can result in a false positive because the LH levels become concentrated overnight."
