When a positive pregnancy test fades to a negative, is there more of a chance of that meaning I'm pregnant or not? Had 3 positives that have faded away.

What do u mean faded away? I don't really understand..

Some brands do fade. It's one of the reasons they say not to read after a certain period of time.

Do you have a pic show before and after the fade?

The result is what is shown in the timeframe stated on the instructions. Most off them say not to read the result after that time.

It's probably the brand OP. My test is still showing a dark line and am now over 38 weeks pregnant. The line is formed from a reaction with the hcg hormone meaning it wouldn't form at all if it wasn't positive, try another brand and it probably stick. Congratulations GrinThanks

The cheaper tests tend to do this! Happens with the strip ones also! It's why they say not to read the result after a certain period of time because the second line may fade.
