Will ov tests always be positive when pg?

Hi

I was just wondering. If you were pg and took an OV test would it always show positive? ie if you get a neg OV there is no point wasting a pg test - does it work like that? (assuming its not too early to show up etc).

I wouldn't rely on them as a pg test although they have shown it for some people.

Some people it would show as a very strong positive but its really not a reliable way of testing

I had heard this too before I fell pregnant. I tried just out of curiosity and the OPK was def negative. I have heard of some cases where people have gotten positives when pregnant though.

Probably be better using internet cheap hpt rather than opks. Not everyone gets +ive opks when they're pg.

Good luck
