Hi, I am not by any means a dr, and I am ttc myself. However, I have ditched the OPK's as they seemed to make my anxiety worse. Yes they are useful to determine O, but I felt butterflies every time I did one of those darn tests!! LOL! In the end, after using them for 4 months, I had progesterone levels done for three months at my dr's office. These showed that I had been ovulating so now we are leaving it to fate, we are still trying, but we aren't focusing on the timeing..just having relations frequently.

I hope this helps, it is just my opinion after getting stressed out, stress can be counter productive on all accounts!

Best wishes Alli
