Hi!
There is not much that can cause a false positive--the HCG trigger shot can, but its unlikely to do so after 24-48 hours, so you probably ARE!
Good luck!

When you re-test, be sure to use the first morning urine--the hormone is more concentrated in that sample.

does it matter how light the line is? I took another test today (3days early) and the 2nd line is there, but very faint. The 2nd line was lighter on this HPT was lighter then the HPT i took a few days ago. The HCG Trigger was on November 11th, IUI was on 13th, another trigger on Nov. 18th. RE told me to test on 29th November.
Does the lightness matter on a HPT?

What day did you take the trigger booster??? cause it still could be that but otherwise good luck that's it's not a false positive

Well with my daughter. I took the HPT early. I got a very faint blue line. I was so happy... But so scared.... I took the test to work with me and showed the RN on duty. She said to trust the test and take another one in the morning. I also called the number on the test.. They also stated that I should go with what the test states and retest in the morning or in a couple of days.
Now 7years later. We are trying again. This time I can't have the lap surgery due to complications from another surgery. The doctors won't touch me again. As I had a cardiac arrest and was in the hospital for four days in intensive care. So now they have me trying a cocktail of drugs. 2 tablets twice a day of Glumetza 1000mg, 3 tables a day  of Fermara  and  1 tablet of Dexamethasone 0.5mg from days 6 to 14. Now my doctor stated that he tried this with another female awhile back. She got BFP with triplets. So he stated that he didn't try it again... I spoke with my husband we decided to try it. What else did we have to loss. Now they have been working like a charm. I have ovulated all three months, every month had at least two follices @ 28 in size. This month I have one follice on each side. One 29 and the other 25. The 25 one stopped growing. So that think that that one is the egg. So we did the IUI. The day after the surge. I'm currently on Cd 29 and trying hard to wait to do the HPT... Waiting is sooooo hard for us.....Well I hope you the best..... Just retest in the morning... We is that line gets darker!!!!!!!Lots of baby dust to you!!!!!!

I saw your pic and there is a definate line!  I see you did IUI.  Did you use a trigger shot???  It is possible that its still in your system but it could also be a BFP!!!!
