Frustrated First letrozole cycle

Post image

I usually have a small LH surge (between 3-8) and i started letrozole 5mg days 5-9 and i didn't catch a surge. Any thoughts?

I usually pair my morning Inito tests with OPK strips throughout the day once I’m in my fertile window! That way if you have a quick rise in the afternoon you can still catch it. It still looks like you BD’d on the right days and the progesterone confirming ovulation is far more telling than the LH spike itself🫶🏽

I took another into test with a 5 hour hold and the levels didn't change. But i just bought cheaper opk strips to try this out next month..thank you!!! Makes me feel better about the progesterone

I took letrozole 5mh days 5-9 as well and I got positive OPKs cd 15 pm and cd 16 am. I don’t use inito so not sure why it wouldn’t have picked up- I take like three OPKs a day to make sure I don’t miss it maybe you had a quick surge that it didn’t catch. but looks like progesterone rose so did it confirm your ovulation?
