Faint line on a pregnancy test 15mins later what does this mean?

Hi
I don't know if I am going crazy but I have done three pregnancy tests over the last three days and after 15mins it showed a faint line what does this mean? I got my friend to use the same test and leave it for the same amount of time and she got nothing? Picture below mine is on the left side, I have done this three times and it's done the same thing, I did a clear blue test and it did the same but after 30mins, so now I don't know if I am just being crazy.
I am recovering from hypothalamic amenorrhea I had my first period in 9 months back in June but nothing since around two weeks ago I felt I might be ovulating but due to not knowing my cycle and being so irregular I have no idea when my period would be due so I have no idea when to test.
I currently have no symptoms which makes me think it's nothing but why have three tests showed the same and my friend got nothing?.
Anyone that could help would be greatly appreciated.

I would say that's definitely a positive!

Lukeandlorelai4Ever · 31/08/2017 19:05

Definitely a line! Congrats Brew

I can see the line. Can you get one of these first response tests and do it tomorrow morning? Best chance to get a good line

I can't see any line

Buy the digital one, no need for lines.

ScarletSienna · 31/08/2017 19:36

I can see a line too.

GaryBarlowsTaxReturn · 31/08/2017 19:39

I see a line in the first pic and the last. Congrats!

indulgentberries · 31/08/2017 19:40

I can see a line in the first but not in the second. Get one of the ones that say pregnant or not pregnant?

Watbox · 31/08/2017 19:45

Same thing happened to me. Faintest of lines you could only see with a flood light and westerly wind but hey ho.....boom a baby girl Grin. Congrats

PollytheDolly · 31/08/2017 19:55

Thank you for the comments, the only thing that has suddenly happened tonight tho is I have had spotting like bits of brown blood only tiny tiny amounts is that normal?

Minimonkeysmum · 01/09/2017 03:53

It can be! I've had spotting with this (second) pregnancy and been told that a bit of bleeding is normal as the embryo gets settled into the uterus - particularly if it's brown, not red.

Fingers crossed for you.

Would you get it this early on tho as if my hcg is so low it's not showing fully on test?

If it's brown it's old. It could be from implantation.

So the zoomed in one is from today as you can see a lot fainter, does that mean I have lost it?

I can't see a line.

I really recommend you stop doing them and guessing about lines that may or may not be there. If you are pregnant and it's established you get a full and proper line on the test.
Wait at least a week and do one then.

I am not guessing about lines when I can see one I am doing tests a lot because I'm sorry I have spent the last year trying and never had even a slight line so this is different.

When I had my bfp with my son it came up after the time limit. So looks to me like you are... if I were you I'd speak to the doctor and get bloods done it's more accurate and can get the results the day after you have them done x

worriedw · 01/09/2017 09:25

Def looks like lines on all of them. Take a test with first morning urine when the preg hormone should be at its strongest.

Use a First response preg test - the pink ones. They are the most sensitive.

I also had brown spotting when I first found out I was pregnant with my son.

PollytheDolly · 01/09/2017 09:27

Well, I see it too, quite clearly x

user1487671808 · 01/09/2017 09:30

I can see lines on all of them. I actually phoned the helpline on one of the packets years ago to ask if a ridiculously faint line was just a shadow etc and was told by a very patient lady that a line is a line is a line and that's a positive! 3 DC later she was right every time.
