i threw away the box, have now just done one and can't remember what windows mean. it was a rowlands pharmacy/numark cheapest box around £4ish for two tests.

result i had looks like: - (1st window, larger window) | (in second smaller window)

anyone used one recently? will be buying another in the morning but just in case!

There are lines in both windows?

owlingabout · 14/02/2013 20:10

yes lines in both windows but 1st window line is accross/horizontal (-)(|)

i've been trying to work it out on google, looks like some are (|)(|) equals positive

then (+) (|) on other brands which equals positive

but can't work out (-)(|) ??? probably negative but not 100%

"POSITIVE RESULT; Two red-purple lines appear in the results window. This means you are pregnant.
NEGATIVE RESULT; One red-purple coloured line. This means you are probably not pregnant."

From here

thanks, but my lines are blue!! so not sure what brand it was, i will just have to get another one, and keep the packaging this time!

I haven't used that particular brand (but I have used a lot of different ones) but usually the 1st window is the test window and the second one is the one that tells you if you are pregnant.

Ismthere no brand on the stick or the wrapper?

That numark one I linked to seems to imply you need two lines in the results window for a positive. Albeit in a different colour!

Hopefully this link works! Can you remember what the box looks like as I found this image:

thank you all, think it does look like that image, so would need a + sign in circle to be positive, so probably not, panic over!!
