I think I’m going mad - I’ve had children and never known a strong evaporation line like this , however I’ve done two of these this morning and each time the line hasn’t appeared until twenty minutes after and then continued to get darker , the instructions clearly say disregard any result after ten minutes - so should I ignore ?

Look at this test !

Bloody hell OP. I’d pass out from shock. Praying it’s the result you want.

Ella31 · 13/06/2023 13:02

All my blue dyes had those lines after the designated times. Anytime I was truly pregnant it came up within the time frame

Ask your doctor re if the HRT is affecting the result

A Google search informs me it doesn’t but that hitting the menopause can raise HCG levels so I’m hoping it’s that

Oh wow this is exciting ( if you would be happy of course)

If a digital says I’m pregnant I’ll need picking off the floor , right after I’ve picked my husband off the floor 🤣

Oh wow @MemoryLapsing I'm shamelessly following having read the thread and curious about the outcome! How would you feel if it was a pregnancy? Hope you get the outcome you want, whatever that be!

Right now I genuinely have no idea - there are so many implications to being pregnant at this age - I suffered from terrible hyperemesis in my other pregnancies and not sure I could ever face that again , especially at THIS age 😖

Thinking of you and hope you've got that digital test 🫶🏼

I think it does look too strong to be an evap but I’ve not used the blue dye ones.

in my experience the pink dye ones are a bit less prone to them (or at least any evaps are very very faint and obviously evaps).

Ah that makes sense - but then I suppose a digital would clear it up once and for all ?

Does it look too strong to be an Evap ?
Are pink ones less likely to have Evaps ?

Eek!! My tests were really faint until around 2 weeks after my period was due! Now sat here with a hot 13 week old!

Get a digital Grin

Mushroo · 13/06/2023 12:15

Oh gosh! Yes it’s a very very strong evap. Try a pink dye test and see how you get on

My thoughts exactly.

@MemoryLapsing

"with a disguise" ... 😂🤣😂🤣
Just go get one ... you won't rest until you do.
Try and get more than one, for a double check tomorrow morning.

Ok I will head over after lunch and report back - should add I’ve name changed for this for obvious reasons 🙈

I may be wrong but I think it's unusual to get an evap line on two different tests. I haven't ever had an evap line on these tests before, although it know people say they are common. My positive tests looking like this after a while.

I must admit they look just like the positive tests I had with my teenager

@MemoryLapsing
Send the hubby out for that digital!!
And get on the phone to the GP!!
Try and stay calm (easier said than done) but try.

I'm currently in my 1st trimester - my partner and I did the deed ONCE in the space of two months!! Sometimes, it really does only take the one shot ...

Congratulations! I suspect you are considerably younger than me though 🤣 I must admit all my children were “first timers “ I assumed that at my age everything was shutting up shop , my husband is a lot younger than me , second marriage and no children together - he seems quite calm about it - we live quite rurally so it’s a trek to the supermarket but I’m considering it .. with a disguise

Any result that comes up after the designated time should be disregarded as inaccurate. I'd take a FRER and go with the result that comes up within the time frame.

That’s slightly more reassuring- I’m currently a week late

OP posts:
Hazelnuttella · 13/06/2023 12:01

A negative test probably won’t reassure you though because you’d still be waiting to see if you got a positive in a few more days if your period didn’t arrive…
