Question 1

what does one dark red line mean on a pregnancy test?

Accepted Answer

Pregnancy test.: One line is negative.  Two lines are positive.  Your pregnancy test is negative.

Question 2

2 days late took a pregnancy test today 1 line red the other white should i wait more days to take an other one ?

Accepted Answer

Yes: If you don't have a period within about a week, you should re-check another pregnancy test.  It's very normal to be a few days late for a cycle.

Question 3

my pregnancy test result showed one red line, what does it mean?

Accepted Answer

Depends: A positive test has two bands. One band means either a negative test or an invalid test. Please read the package insert as the position of the colored band determines if it is a negative test of an unreliable test.

Question 4

i stayed on my period for 2days came off and started spottin came off da same day and i took a pregnancy test one line red and the other line u can bearly see da line  could i be prego?

Accepted Answer

Yes: So long as you see even a faint second line possibility of pregnancy is there.

Question 5

period late nov 20 had one red streak between nov 20-21 ovulated nov 2-7 but pregnancy test negative but have all signs of pregnancy could i be??

Accepted Answer

Unlikely: There is always the possibility of false negative pregnancy test if you are using an over the counter home test. To be sure, get a more reliable test in a formal lab

Question 6

one red line(mean negative according to test) on pregnancy test with a clear-transparent line  .i had used first morning pee in the 3 min.am i preg?

Accepted Answer

Probably not: Both lines have to turn red in order for it to be a positive test. Unfortunately, sometimes you can be very early pregnant and the test won't show positive yet. If you're late for your period, then check another test in a week.

Question 7

period due 5 days ago..had brown blood when i wiped on one occasion, then today had red blood when i wiped on one occasion. pregnancy test neg. help?

Accepted Answer

Hormonal imbalance: Menstrual irregularities are not uncommon and anovulatory cycle is a common cause. If you miss more than two periods it would be time to see your doctor. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time. You may consider implanted contraceptive or an IUD.

Practice safe sex.

Question 8

my periods are dark brown blood and were late for one week  and still light red and brown bleeding for 10 days.i didn't do the pregnancy test. please let me know what is wrong.

Accepted Answer

Menstrual issues: You should get a pregnancy test. If negative than you may have ovulated later than usual. Also your hormones may be off . This could be caused by stress or illness .

Question 9

hello . my period was from jan 12th-15th the cycle days was 27. i had sex with my boyfriend on january 23rd and i cheated on him on the 28th. i had a light red spotting when i wiped in the 28th. so i took a one step pregnancy test the 29th negative?

Accepted Answer

: The wording in your post is confusing and question vague. Pregnancy has been documented from exposure on any day of the cycle including during menses. Tests are likely truly negative by 3 weeks after exposure but can be falsely negative early in pregnancy. From this story you might be pregnant, and the father may be either man.

Question 10

hi! should i see a doctor about bright red spotting instead of period and negative pregnancy test one week later?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily: The main reason for light periods is a change in hormone levels. Causes for what seems to be a light period can include: thyroid problems, eating disorders, excessive exercise, initial periods for a girl, use of an intrauterine device, oral contraceptives, perimenopause ; implantation bleeding in early pregnancy which rarely occurs. If it keeps up - let you gyn know.
