Was just wondering if there is someone that was ovulating and ovulation test just didn't show positive. I never get a positive one. And I do one each day during my cycle, thanks

I never did see that stupid line either. I just took a friends advice to have sex when I wanted it the most, b/c that's prolly when I'm ovulating.
I'm 6 wks pregnant now!
if that helps...
Listen to your body, when you have the most lubricative discharge, and you're the most easily turned on....that's prolly when you're ovulating.

Some women have trouble with OPKs because their surge is very short and they tend to miss it. These women have to test twice a day, once late morning, again early evening in order to catch their surge. That could be your case.
On the next cycle, start testing on the day recommended and this time test once around noon and again around 6pm. See if that helps. Also, very important to make sure your urine isn't too diluted. Make sure it's been at least 4 hours since you last urinated before testing, and limit your fluid intake during that time as well.
The other thing I would strongly recommend is charting your basal body temperature (BBT). Your bbt's are the only way to confirm for sure if you ovulated and when. FertilityFriend.com has a great program to help you do this and its free.

Sometimes they work sometimes they dont. But another reason it might not be showing up is because you might not be ovulating. I would head to the doctors to make sure.

It is possible that you are either not ovulating or you need a higher end test. I'd make a visit with a fertility specialist.

No, they don't and some even see what appeasr ot be a positive for far too many days to be taken seriously. Try charting your BBT instead.... www.fertilityfriend.com
