Dream - For married couples who are waiting for a child, when menstruation is late or does not come, it can be a nerve-wracking situation. To confirm pregnancy or not, usually rely on home pregnancy test tools or test packs.

The following 'Bahasa' text translated to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "The test tool is very easy to obtain at a mini market or pharmacy at a very affordable price. In some cases, the test result can be confusing. One common occurrence is when one of the lines that appears is faint and not clear."

That raises doubts, whether pregnant or not. So what does it mean if one of the lines on the test pack appears faint?

Meaning of Lines on Testpack

There are two lines that Sahabat Dream must know when using a test pack. The first line will appear immediately when the urine sample touches the test pack. This first line is called the control line, which indicates that the test pack is functioning properly. So, if this line does not appear, then the test pack is likely damaged and cannot be used.

Meanwhile, the second line on the testpack is called the test line. This line will appear if the urine sample shows a high level of hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin). The high hCG level is a sign that pregnancy has occurred. There are several possibilities for the faint appearance of the test line on the testpack, here are some of them.

1. Pregnant, But hCG in Urine is Not Too High

First possibility, pregnancy may occur, but hCG in urine is still not too high so that the test line is still faintly visible. This can also be caused by urine that is too diluted, or a woman is still in the early stages of pregnancy. hCG levels will increase exponentially. Therefore, Sahabat Dream does not need to worry. Repeat the pregnancy test within one or two days since the first test.

2. Not Pregnant, Lines Appear due to Evaporation

The second reason the test pack lines appear faint is because the urine has dried and evaporation has occurred in the pregnancy test device. If Sahabat Dream waits too long, it is likely that this will happen. The result of this evaporation line will be a faint gray color and usually appears after 10 minutes of testing. If still in doubt, you can wait for a few days and repeat the next test.

3. Other Reasons

Apart from the two possibilities mentioned above, there are several other causes that could be the reason for faint test lines. It could be due to chemical pregnancy, molar pregnancy, or factors related to fertility drugs and birth control. Research also suggests that women who have entered the perimenopause phase tend to have higher levels of hCG. Women in postmenopause also have high levels of hCG, so a test pack is likely to show a positive result even if they are not currently pregnant.

In certain conditions, the testpack results can also indicate pregnancy even if not pregnant. For example, if there has been a recent miscarriage, it is likely that hCG is still present in the body, so the testpack will show a positive sign. In addition, incorrect usage of the testpack can also be one of the factors for the test results to fail. For example, being too hasty or leaving the testpack for too long, resulting in inaccurate results.

"Therefore, it is necessary to carefully read the instructions for using the test pack before using it. If you are still unsure about the test pack, it is recommended to do a blood test with a doctor because the results are much more accurate. Report by Salma Rihhadatul Aisy / Source: Parents"
