What Does Faint Line On HPT With Digital Kit Showing Positive Pregnancy Mean?

I took an early HPT last Sunday and had a very faint line. Hcg at 71 confirmed pregnancy on Monday. I took another hpt today 5 days later and the line is even more faint this time. Took a digital and it says positive. Am I still pregnant? I ve been on crinone progesterone since Sunday as well.

Hello

HPT may be weakly positive in early pregnancy due to inadequate HCG in urine.
In this condition,best way to confirm pregnancy is ultrasound of pelvis.
Presence of G-sac within uterus confirms pregnancy.
However,you may also go for repeat urine test after 2 weeks.
You are rightly taking progesterone supplementation.It will support pregnancy.

Take Care
