If a woman's menstrual cycle is delayed by a few days, it may be a sign of pregnancy, but there are also many women who experience a delay due to irregular menstruation. However, if menstruation is delayed, it is very convenient to test for pregnancy using a pregnancy test stick. However, many people have found that the color of the test stick is very light and almost invisible during testing. What is the reason for this? Let's watch together.
The pregnancy test stick is very shallow and there's hardly any problem
1. Looking at the pregnancy test results too early, the test takers are more anxious about the results. They read the test results in less than a minute, and at this time, the two lines displayed on the pregnancy test stick are still very shallow.
2. If the pregnancy test results show that the two lines observed within 5 minutes are very shallow and almost indistinguishable, it indicates that the pregnancy test may be due to insufficient urine on the test stick or contamination of the test stick.
3. Other factors can affect the results of pregnancy tests. If the test taker drinks too much water, it can dilute the levels of progesterone in the body, resulting in a very light color display. Additionally, some medications may also affect the test results, so it is important to carefully read the label instructions.
Is the shallow pregnancy test result accurate
At present, even the accuracy of pregnancy test results produced by legitimate manufacturers is only 85% -95%, and if the test results are very shallow and almost invisible, the accuracy is even lower.
Many women who want to have children or do not want to have children will eagerly undergo a pregnancy test if they find that their menstrual cycle is delayed by a few days. But sometimes the color displayed on the pregnancy test stick is particularly light, which is almost non-existent. Generally, it is caused by a relatively short number of pregnancy days, but the accuracy is not too high. Women can wait another week for the test.
