Did ovulation occur on the first day the test became positive or did it occur on one of the following days?
22-year-old woman
Hi, I did claireblue ovulation tests, and they were all negative (empty circle) until day 10 after my period (start of period on Nov 24/end of period on Nov 29). On day 11, the test became very positive (smiling circle on Dec 10), and this continued until day 15 (Dec 14).
My question is: did the ovulation take place on the first day when the test became positive or did it take place in one of the following days: 12, 13, 14, 15?
Thanks to you.
Have a nice evening!

Hello ma'am, do you have the test that shows a smiling face?

Hello,
yes, that's right. The circle was empty, and the next day there was a smiling face that lasted 4 days!

But I don't know if I ovulated so the first day this smile appeared, or if I ovulated one day or the smile you but later.
i express myself badly, I hope that you will have understood..

Please excuse the above post, I had to write it fast.
So I said: I had my period from November 24 to 29. My claireblue ovulation tests were all negative until December 9 (there was only one empty circle). But on December 10th and until December 14th, my ovulation tests became smiling faces.
So my question is: did I ovulate the first day the smile appeared, or did I ovulate in the following days (where there was also a smile)?

Thanks for the feedback. The smiley face indicates the period just before your most "fertile" time. Keep in mind that these tests are not 100% sensitive and that a few days with a smiley face can be similar to the LH peak plateau.

Thanks also for your quick and informative feedback. But what about a plateau? So does ovulation occur at the beginning or end of this plateau or during maybe?
Naji-tom Samaha · a year ago
During the menstrual cycle, the level of luteinizing hormone reaches its peak and then promotes the release of an egg. This peak is not instantaneous, it can last a few days. This is called the plateau, I'm sorry I wasn't clear. Ovulation occurs in the day or days following the peak, that is to say the beginning of the peak.

Very well I see much more clearly now, thank you for answering and so quickly! It's good to be able to talk with professionals !
One last question: Does the beginning of the peak correspond to the first smiling face?
So tell me if I'm wrong: ovulation could have happened at any time during this plateau, which itself corresponds to the positive ovulation test (with the smiles)
Thank you again for your quick and clear answers. After this question, I will not bother you anymore. My questions have been answered.

You are not disturbing in any way!
Once the smiling man is seen for the first time, ovulation can occur within a day. Just as ovulation can occur at the first peak or during the plateau.

Very good. Everything is clear now, thank you.
Have a nice day!
