Hard telling. Your BBT chart is not helpful. Rather than go thru all this and waste money on OPK's, I usually tell my patients to have intercourse every other day from day 10 thru day 20. Having intercourse more often than that lowers the sperm count and decreases chances of conception. If one has sex within 24 hours of the time of ovulation, one has hit it on the nose, so every other day is a great interval.
