I went off trynessa Feb 14, 2010 after being back on it for a year. I had the normal "post birthcontrol" bleeding the following week and then my normal expected period March 3, 2010 for the normal 5 days. I know it can take some time to get back to "normal," but my husband and I wanted to start ttc right away. I started OPK to see how soon ovulation after stopping the pills would start. I finally got a positive surge on March 21 at 10:00 AM and it lasted until March 22 between 7:00 PM and 10:00 PM. Before the positive surge we have been having sex at least every other day and then after that, every day. We even had sex the night before the positive surge. I have also been BBT charting, but since I don't sleep well at night and I move around a lot, I don't think that is very accurate, or at least I don't trust it. Prior to all of this, I am pretty sure I had a regular schedule, having a regular period within a day or two each month. Just curious if anyone has had a similar situation and conceived right away. This is the first time I ever tried to see when I ovulated, so I'm not sure if this is my normal time or just because it is "post bc pills.".....if I even ovulated at all!! Also, the night before I had a positive surge, I had a huge clump of jelly like discharge when I wiped after a bm.

The LH surge triggers the release of the egg. So, technically you cannot ovulate before you get the LH surge, but if you are testing with ovulation kits that measure the LH surge you can ovulate before you notice the LH surge.

In order to detect ovulation, it is best to use a ovulation monitor that detects LH and estrogen levels because it is when the estrogen levels reach a certain threshold value that the LH surge occurs.

No, you cannot. The LH surge happens just before ovulation, but if you ovulate late you may think you already had a LH surge earlier in your cycle. As a result of stress, hormonal imbalance or PCOS women may have patches of fertile mucus and positive PKO test alternating with dry mucus and negative PKO before the real ovulation occurs.

Yes because luteinizing hormone supports the mature ovarian body in th ovary. If pregnancy occurs, then this hormone is necessary as a precusor to the developing placenta.

Lh surge indicates pregnancy?

A Lh surge (known as the luteal surge) indicates ovulation, not pregnancy. The luteal surge causes the follicle to burst which releases the egg into the body cavity, it is then drawn into the fallopian tubule where fertilization occurs. An increase in HCG indicates pregnancy, HCG in blood and urine is the first outward sign of pregnancy.
