Hi.

I had a natural m/c at 8 weeks I stopped bleeding on sunday. I've been taking HPTs and they're still reading some left over HCG but it is going down slowly.

I've read on here that some women have ovulated around 14 days after the bleeding started following the m/c. So I've taken some ovulation tests and this is what I've got. The test line seems to have gotten lighter over the last few days. Is this reading the left over HCG on the ovulation test? Or is this the LH dropping? So could I have already ovulated? Or does your LH go up and down in your cycle anyway?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Many thanks,
Javi x

Ovulation test also pick up HCG.

Well the OPK could have been picking up hCG that is now gone but with my mc my pregnancy test was neg like a day after I stopped bleeding. However it could also be picking up LH as that does fluxuate throughout your cycle.
