First positive after IVF, 10dp5dt, is this test line too light?

So I’ve had my first ever BFP today on a frer after three rounds of ivf and am obviously over the moon, but immediately worried that this line is too light? Could this be a chemical?

I took the test in the afternoon after work, around 5pm, 10dp5dt (so equivalent to 15dpo). Guess I’m just looking for reassurance as I’m very new to this side of things! Thanks xxx

That’s a normal line, not a faint one, congratulations

That's a good strong line! Congratulations!

No, looks good for 10dp. Test every day and you'll see it get darker now. Don't panic if it doesn't change too much or even seems to get lighter - wee concentration makes a difference - but over time you'll see the pattern. Congratulations xx

That really is a strong line for only ten days PO ! Best of luck OP !

@MabelAnderson so it’s 10 days past a 5 day transfer. Which means it’s actually equivalent of 15dpo 🫣

but hoping i will see some progession over the next few days

It’s still a nice strong line. I have no personal experience of ivf so I don’t know what a five day transfer is, but I’m wondering if that is a five day embryo inserted ten days ago ? If so then implantation may have taken a few days after that ?
I’m wishing you all the best OP.
