I've used one of these tests and that is a negative, sorry. The two pink lines show up next to each other so if it was positive you would see them both xx

Hi there

A faint line is often indicative of a positive test. However, I would suggest taking another test and following the instructions on the test, as most instructions say don’t read after 10 minuets. It might be a good idea to get another pregnancy test from your local contraceptive clinic, that way you can go through your dates with them.

You can find your local clinic here: fpa.org.uk/find-a-clinic

I hope this helps

Best wishes

Katherine

I have used these tests for years and would have to agree with LeyaC that appears to be a negative, the lines would be much closer together than that if it were positive. No harm in leaving it a few days and re-testing.

Have you peeled back the max plastic to see that line? If so it may be the line where the plastic was stuck to.

If you google image search positive pregnancy test strip you will see lots of pictures showing where the 2 lines would be evident.

Hope you get the result you are looking for soon x

Not what you're looking for?
