Ovulating on my period?

Okay so I am super duper confused. I’ve been using the Clearblue Advanced Digital Ovulation test to figure out when I ovulate but it’s been super confusing. I have used these test before and got pregnant immediately on the first try but this time seems very off..? Alright so this month I began testing on the 14th. From the 14th-17th the test showed low fertility/negative. Then on the 18th the test finally showed a high fertility blinking smiley, I was excited but then I got my period the same day?! I assumed that something was wrong with the test so I didn’t bother testing again till like 3 days later, on the 20th. I was still on my period but once again my test still showed high fertility. I did not test on the 21st, which is the day my period ended. It is now the 22nd and I am no longer on my period so I decided to take a test and now it shows a peak high fertility smiley?!?! Does this mean I ovulate during my period? I thought that wasn’t possible.. is the test broken? Could having a tube removed in february be the cause for this? Has anyone experienced this or had a positive ovulation test during their period?

Question. Have you taken a pregnancy test? Sometimes ovulation tests can be positive if they detect HCG since LH is very similar and the test gets confused. If that’s negative I’d say it could be faulty batch of tests? Maybe try picking up some cheap ovulation tests and see if you get a positive on them too.

@Sarah I have not taken a pregnancy cuz I got off my period yesterday and had a normal 5 day period. so surely I couldn’t be pregnant if it ended yesterday?

@Desiree I wouldn’t completely rule it out . Sounds crazy but I know some people who had a period then found out they were pregnant. Id say that’s probably a rare situation though, but worth ruling out in this situation just because its not typically possible to ovulate while on your period because that’s the time your body is getting rid of the egg that was shed during ovulation. Could very well just be the tests you’re using. Keep me posted if you do decide to test!

Alright will do! It will suck if its the test but it would make sense, I had to have the current one I’m using be sent because the first one of the same brand was definitely faulty. I thought this one worked though cuz I used the faulty test and this one on the same day a few days ago and the faulty one showed positive while this one showed negative 🤔

@Sarah Just took a pregnancy test, looks like a big fat negative 🥲🤷🏽‍♀️

@Desiree I’m sorry love! Probably just faulty tests. The easy at home ovulation tests are my go to and you get them in bulk. Might be worth trying! Sending you baby dust! 🤍🤍

LH hormone does fluctuate around your period and can rise with your period and then drop, I’ve had this before xx

It may not be your period but instead ovulation bleeding. If it's only spotting for a day or two around the time your supposed to ovulate and it's not a ton of blood. It's just due to the change in hormones. Hope this helps
