What should I do if the pregnancy test stick shows one dark spot and one light spot

If the control line on the pregnancy test stick is clearly visible and the test line is very light in color, it means that you may be pregnant, but it does not necessarily mean that you are actually pregnant.

In this case, you need to retest with a new pregnancy test stick and first-morning urine every two days.

The reason why the pregnancy test stick is one dark and one light

1. If you have just gotten pregnant or have an ectopic pregnancy, such as an ectopic pregnancy, the HCG level in the body is generally low, and the color band in the detection area only appears faintly, which will also cause the pregnancy test stick to be dark and light.

2. In extraordinary cases, such as hydatidiform mole and choriocarcinoma, the HCG level in the body will be too high and the urine test will not show a positive result.

3. After 3 months of pregnancy, HCG levels decrease and urine tests may sometimes show negative or weak positive results.
