confused about test result

I used a rite aid brand early result test and it came back with a faint blue line. Since a few days ago i have taken 6 of these tests, and all came back with the same line within 10 minutes. I then tryed ept, clear blue and first response and they all came back negative, and i still am getting the faint blue line on rite aid test. what does this mean?

i just took another dollar test and a faint pink line appeared, definatetly pink and visible, i havent gotten a line this dark yet. it was about half the color of the control line. i havent taken a first response test in 3 days, i will try tomorrow, maybe it will show a line now, based on the two tests do you think im pregnant also having stomach sharp gas pains with other symptoms

Evaporation lines can appear within the allotted time you are to read the test. It has happened to me before, many times. Now I only ONLY use First Response.

I would look up the store brand test and see what the level of HCG the tests you are taking can detect, if the ones that are showing up negative detect a number higher than the positive test you are definately pregnant. But if the reverse is true or they should detect the same amount of hcg than they are either evap lines or it could be a reallllllly early miscarriage. I got faint positive and then negative tests then my period and the doc thinks I either wasn't pregnant or it was a chemical pregnancy that didn't implant.

Wait a week then test again and let us know! Good luck!

today i bought a 99 cent store test and after about 4 minutes a veryy slight pink line appeared very hard to see though. it disappeared after the test dryed about 15 minutes later, does this mean im early pregnant. its been two weeks since i had sex, only one time.

If it was an evaporation line wouldnt it appear after the 10 minutes and i took 7 tests so far of the rite aid, all would get an evaporation line?

Blue dye tests are notorious for evaporation lines. And unfortunately it's harder to tell an evap on a blue dye test than a pink dye test. The evap line is greyish-blue.

I would wait a few days and retest with First Response.

I am all about the digital tests. Although a little more on the expensive side, they are easy to read and don't cause the confusion of whether or not a line is visible. I had similar issues with my first preg and ended up being able to test pos only with digital. I no longer purchase the line ones anymore.

Ive never heard of rite aid.2 things i can think of.either they are not very reliable tests,known for evaps.or you are very early hence why clear blue etc not detecting,however first response detect as early as 6 days before period dont they.they do here in uk.not sure where you are from.when is your period due.or are you late.
