Should Be Ovulating but Test Is Negative?

Should Be Ovulating but Test Is Negative?

Along with pregnancy tests, it is possible to get a negative result on your ovulation test when you are in fact ovulating. One thing you can do to avoid getting a false-negative test result is to be sure you are testing early or late enough in your cycle.

What does it mean if ovulation test keeps saying negative?

A negative ovulation test means there is no luteinizing hormone surge, and ovulation has not occurred. If you are unsure about the results, check the booklet included with the test. Reasons for negative results: You used first morning urine.

Does a negative LH test mean no ovulation?

A negative LH test does not mean that you're not fertile, or that ovulation will not occur. This only means that no LH surge has been detected at the time you tested, so it is encouraged to keep testing. You may need to test more often, 2-3 times a day to catch the surge.
