You mean you think you have started your period?
When was the first day of your last period? Did you start the OPKs 10 days after the day your period started, or 10 days after the day your period ended?

@pui: well i thought i t was implantation bleeding but then i saw small little blood clots, and i have read a few things saying that having those is mostly do to a period. but then some will be discharge as well

My doctor told me to count the day I had full flow as day 1. Have you been on birth control recently?

@BrentLee88: how long do your cycles normally last? I averaged 25-26 day cycles and usually ovulated day 10-12. I would start about 12-14 days after I ovulated. I never spotted beforehand. I would just start with a full flow.

@Jennimac: my cycles are usually 28-30 days, yeah i started taking ovulation test march 28th 10 days after my period and all have been negative, i am testing once a day around 3pm. so far i have taken 9 ovulation test, this is my first time trying to figure out when i ovulate though too. i guess i will see if this turns out as a full flow or not?

I never took ovulation tests, my cm was enough for me to go by. I would suggest taking them in the morning and afternoon so you don't miss a surge. Also, make sure you are holding your pee long enough. You can have a period without ovulating. The l ing still needs to be shed. Have you tried charting your temp, cm, and ovulation tests?

@Jennimac: well the first 3 days i started taking them in the morning, and they were negative,but then i started just taking them around 3pm instead cause work schedule, i took 2 test one day but was still negative so maybe i will start just taking 2 a day to make sure, i took 2 one day and it was negative as well, no i haven't, i am not really sure how to do so, i have a few emails to read from fertile friendly website courses, just been busy with work to read up on it.

I would suggest reading "Taking Charge of Your Fertility". It is very helpful in recognizing what your body does, etc.
Good luck!!!!!
