Evap line on NEW frer?????

16 replies

I’m 10 dpo so thought I’d do a test today and saw a really really faint line !
I had a pack of 2 frer so thought I’d do another this evening …….. got it out of the packet and there’s a clear line (where the test line should be ?????)

So now I feel like my line this morning was probably not real 😞

I thought these were meant to be the best tests!!!!

I've had bother with these tests lately too.

Hang in there and keep testing see if the lines get clearer

I think every brand of test has this problem. Frer are still the best as in most sensitive. If it’s a positive line it will be pink in colour

I’ve never seen then this visible on an unused test !!! I wondered if I had a faulty or fake batch maybe

@disappointedyet did you get them from Amazon. I’ve seen a lot of people saying the ones with bad indents were bought from Amazon. Wondering if they’re faulty batches on there

Ones I got were from boots. Horrible indents and evaps

I’ve also been tricked with indents on FRER bought from boots and Superdrug 🙄

@ElleJones1 mine were a little bit more of a squinter compared to yours, visible in person but hard to pick on camera so don’t rule yourself out by what I’ve said! ☺️

ElleJones1 · 23/03/2023 11:57

Ah thank you! I’ve just done a few cheapies and all very negative. The digital one came up with an error but the other ones are a no xx

kalixxx · 23/03/2023 12:06

@ElleJones1 cheapies may not be sensitive enough depending how many DPO you are! I always hear of digitals getting errors, ridiculous with how expensive they are! 🙄

Saw this thread come up again on ones I’m on .

My tests aren’t faulty they were in fact positives but I think the line was visible before the tests were used in a couple so I’d assumed a faulty batch due to that . Unfortunately my pregnancy was ectopic 😞 we had been trying for so long as well and now I can’t ttc again till may due to the treatment I had

I think I'm going to just hold out testing. It's so early and it just caused more stress and anxiety xx

ElleJones1 · 24/03/2023 09:18

@disappointedyet sending you lots of positivity, strength and love x
