Do they really work

I am wondering if they really work. I am having all the signs that I am ovulating such as the cervical mucas. It is described down to a tea in this book called "taking charge of your fertility". But the fertility doctor won't take me in untill I have a positive surge! Its frustrating because I truley believe that I am ovultating. Won't that be a shock if I just ended up pregnant before they could track my ovulation?

They do work. But you need to track your ovulation at least 3 times a day for your correct surge. The best way to know when you ovulate is to start tracking after your period is over until you get a positive same colour test line as the control line. I suggest buying them online as they are much cheaper (www.earlypregnancytest.com)
take one at 11:00am, one at 3pm and 1 at 7pm each day. This really does let you know when you are surging. I get my LH surge on day 9 of my 27 day cycle and I ovulate on day 11 ( this is the day my egg drops). I hope this helps,, please let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks for the online tip. I had no clue and at the store they are about 20 dollars for 7 sticks do you use the Clear Blue? If you don't mind me asking if you get you LH surge on day 9 are you counting from the first day of your cycle or starting from the day you end you period and 9 days from that. Sorry I am new to the whole fertility thing and everything is kinda confusing. I thought your LH surge ment you were ovulating? So you get the LH surge and then ovulate about 2 days after?

i had all the signs i was ovulating too. my husband and i tried for 7 monthes to get pregnant and we finally did but the OPK was not the reason. i basically wasted my money on those things and the thing that worked for me was taking my temp every morning.
