Faint pregnancy test ?? Confused

Firstly I took pregnancy test and it was pretty visible in the light and then slowly faded (my period is 6 days missed now so pretty early) I've gotten moody and cramps.. anyways, I rubbed the test with my fingernail and it rubbed away the lines so I'm not sure if that was just my mistake?? It was faint for a long time until I did that so I'm not! I feel crazy hahaha

I'd maybe just take another test to be sure. X

Your question, I don’t understand?

Depending on the type of test you used (Clear blue are amongst the least sensitive while First Response Early Results are amongst the most sensitive; internet cheapie tests are somewhere in between but don’t always come up strongly) will having a bearing on the strength of the results. However, at 6 days late, you’d expect a fairly clear line to appear in the window during the time frame as per instructions. After that time they should be discarded and ignored.

I would get a sensitive test and have another go with first morning urine and ensure you stop loooing after the time stated in the instructions (usually between 5-10 minutes). Also, if it’s the cassette type test in a plastic wand, don’t take the test strip out of its casing as this also invalidates the results - and digital tests are designed to have 2 lines even if negative.
