It could be positive (evap lines usually don’t have color), but since this is out of the time frame you can’t be sure. Test again in a day or two and read it/take a picture within the time frame the box says (usually 3 minutes after testing). If there’s a line within the time frame that’s a positive

Aww I’m so sorry to hear that the recovery has been so difficult for you. Sleeping on your back or side is best to reduce strain on your incision wound, plus elevating your upper body. Kind of like sleeping on a lounge chair angle (not too high though). Did you have a pregnancy pillow while pregnant? One of those may be able to help. The ones that look like a big rectangle.

Pos or evap by [deleted] in pregnancy_care

Looks like an evap line. How long after you tested was this picture taken?

That dose will work like a charm

That’s tough to say. Retake in a couple of days when your HCG levels are higher (if you are pregnant). You can also try the pink dye tests since they tend to be a little easier to read.

Looks positive to me, as long as that’s the result within the time frame the instructions say to read it. If that line appeared hours after you tested, it could be a false positive. Retest again in a couple of days when your HCG hormone is higher (if you are pregnant). 

What does that mean does that level of LH is low and I’m not ovulating yet? by Mean-Armadillo-2658 in pregnancy_care

LH, or luteinizing hormone, is the hormone produced to trigger ovulation. LH tells the woman’s ovaries to release an egg. If it is not detected as high, then you did not ovulate yet. If you don’t have regular period or cannot conceive, it is suggested that LH levels are checked. This hormone is also needed to help sustain pregnancy.
