What Does The Faint Line On Pregnancy Test Strip Indicate?

Hello
It is important to rule out pregnancy.
Faint line may be found in urine pregnancy test in early pregnancy due to less or inadequate amount of HCG hormone in urine.
You need repeat urinary pregnancy test after 10 days.
However,ultrasound of pelvis is the investigation of choice for confirmation of pregnancy.It can detect G-sac earliest.
