A 19-year-old female asked:

So if a positive opk doesn't always mean an egg is released how can i (at home) know for sure an egg is released?

Strictly speaking: Only if you get pregnant. Ultrasound is much more sensitive, of course. Relax, if your cycles are regular and your opks clear, you are most likely ovulating on time.
