Is this normal?

So my shipment of OPK's, HPT's, and Preseed came yesterday. Of course I had to take an HPT and OPK. The HPT was clearly negative of course but the OPK had a very, very, very light second line. I am just hoping this is normal and my PCOS isn't already in overdrive. I know women with PCOS have LH that is out of whack. So do you think it was okay to have a light line, which I assume means a little LH in my system? I am only CD5 so I just dont want things increasing and going crazy. Is it normal to have some LH when you are not close to ovulation?

did they come with instructions?

i believe on OPK you want for the second line to be Darker than the control line.

I've always seen a second line on the opks. I think this is normal. When the 2nd line gets as dark as the control line, this means you have found the surge. I don't normally test as early as you did, but I've tested for 6 days in a row and always seen at least a "light" 2nd line.
