What does it mean when one pregnancy test is faint positive and the other is negative?

A very faint line may also occur if the urine is too diluted to detect hCG. Drinking a large amount of fluid can dilute the urine and skew the results. If a faint line becomes a negative test result the second time around, it could be the result of a very early miscarriage in the first few days and weeks of pregnancy.

Can you get a negative test after a faint positive?

A barely visible pregnancy test result usually can’t be negative — because it detected hCG — but it might indicate a false positive for actual pregnancy or an early pregnancy loss. You can also get a false negative result.

Does it matter which line is faint on a pregnancy test first response?

One pink line and one line lighter than the other in the pregnancy test result window means you are pregnant. Any positive test result (even a very faint line) shows that the pregnancy hormone (hCG) was detected.

Can First Response pregnancy test give false negative?

Doctors say so-called early-result pregnancy tests waste time and money. Studies on the packaging of such kits as First Response say 48 percent of women get a “false negative” result when they test three days before their expected period.

What does a faint negative test mean?

First off, a faint line is a negative result. It typically means there is some drug present in your system, but not enough to trigger a positive result. For example, if you use our THC 15 ng/mL test and your results show a faint line, this means your levels are below 15 ng/mL, which is considered very low.

Does a faint line always mean positive?

A faint line on a pregnancy test usually means it’s a positive result – so yes , you’re pregnant. Even the faintest of lines is the detection of the pregnancy hormone, hCG, which can be detected after you have conceived.

Does a faint positive still mean im pregnant?

If you check your results within the recommended time frame and see a faint positive line, you’re most likely pregnant. On the other hand, if you miss the window for checking the results and you don’t check the test until 10 minutes later, a faint line may be an evaporation line, which means you’re not pregnant.

What does a faint positive line mean?

A faint positive pregnancy test is when the line that appears on the pregnancy test is very faint. This is an indication that there isn’t enough hCG in your urine for the pregnancy test to trigger a positive pregnancy result.
