Do evap lines ever get darker over time?

Hi all,

So this morning I took a clearblue ultra early test before work and I'm pretty sure I saw a faint line. I've come back from work and looked at the test and the line is darker blue and prominent. I know you shouldn't read tests after the time window but my question is if this morning what I saw was an evap line then would it have gotten darker in colour over time? Or did i actually see a positive this morning?

Here is a pic of it this evening, forgot to take one this morning as was in a rush for work!

Do evap lines ever get darker over time?

I have had these 2 tests, bottom one I checked an hour after and the top one shown 20 minutes after I’m not sure if this is an evap line but it’s blue? I took a digital which shown not pregnant

Are these avap lines

Hi , I did a test it didn’t show straight away , I walk off and returned a while later with a dark line . I am not worried it’s an evaporate line . I did a test with a different brand 4 days before and had a faint line straight away hence the reason for this test. Helllppp don’t know what to think.

Hi
i did this test this evening and it’s a clear pink line but outside the time zone by 30 mins. Is it positive or evap?

Unknown237 · 18/11/2023 11:50

positive or evap??

Shall1 · 08/08/2023 11:18

Hey everyone, I took this test yesterday morning and about 20 mins later this was the result. However I’ve taken another 3 more and they all been negative what does you think?
thank you

Hello, i took this test it was very faint & when i looked a few minutes later it was alot darker, I don’t suppose if anyone knows, is this an evap or a positive?

Niaomi123 · 27/07/2022 19:35

Hi ladies, took a test this morning and had this line, does it look like a faint positive or evap line?

Vbarnes · 14/06/2022 20:48

I need help .. confused .. I took the test waited about 3 minutes didn’t see anything so I assumed it was negative , came back later and seen the second line .. don’t know if it’s an evap line .. could it be a “false positive” cycle is due until 1 more day .. I took it because I was nauseous for 4days and actually threw up like 2 days before I decided to take it don’t want to do another test until after my expected cycle date .. what do y’all think ?

ttcbab · 05/05/2022 01:23

Is this a positive test? Very blue line

Iris26 · 15/02/2022 12:46

Hi @kerrymorr29, it's very difficult to say as it's quite faint and almost grayish on the pic. Mine was a faint blue then gradually got really dark, then a digital picked up straight away. I would do a cheapie to be sure. Are you late for your period?

Kerrymorr29 · 15/02/2022 12:09

Hello ladies, is this an evap line or positive? Help would much be appreciated. Thank you

Brittyrw · 21/01/2022 10:38

Sorry to jump on this i took a clear blue early test tonight and saw a positive line that was very faint im 10 days late any advice as to if it’s positive or an evaporation line

jat94 · 04/01/2022 10:45

I got my period unfortunately so must have been negative or chemical I guess? Wishing you luck!

Izw12 · 04/01/2022 05:54

Hi there, I’m in a very similar situation and my tests look exactly like that. How did it go?

jat94 · 07/12/2021 08:04

@SWAttempting that's what I thought! But a faint line did come up in the time frame, just seemed to get darker throughout the day

SWAttempting · 07/12/2021 07:16

@jat94 If it's out of the time frame it needs to be discounted.

Worth doing another FRER today.

jat94 · 07/12/2021 06:43

The frer now looks like this

jat94 · 07/12/2021 06:13

Hey these are my tests. Most came up out of time frame. Frer very very faint line came up in time frame and got darker throughout the day. Are these all just evaps? Due AF Saturday x

Jalebi88 · 05/12/2021 23:39

Hi all, congrats to all those who got their bfp, and good luck to all those waiting. I've gone through very similar situation. Did 2 tests on clear blue, No line during the 10 minutes but a very dark one after 10 minutes on the morning urine test, and di one tonight and no line but 26 minutes later a faint line. Its so frustrating. Defo going to get the digital one tomorrow and possibly a frer one as I've heard they're much more accurate? Can't post any photos becuaee I'm a new user 😭😭

Iris26 · 05/12/2021 09:16

Hey @jat94 my lines went really dark after the time limit. Very clear pink lines. I heard evap lines are more a grey colour. I would definitely do another one. Maybe try a pink dye or a digital. I was wondering if mine was evap line and did a digital and it said pregnant. I hope you get the answer you're looking for :)

jat94 · 05/12/2021 07:59

Hey I’ve had two clear blues come back with clear blue lines outside of the time frame. Are these evaps? They’re just very blue!

ttc0702 · 01/12/2021 03:25

Mine was a very dark thin off centered line and I’m just getting my hopes up thinking it’s an evap line. Gonna test in the morning again. Not sure how to post the picture?
