If it's bright red then it's positive, if was lighter barley visible then I could understand doubting but not bright red.

False positives aren’t possible.

When used according to directions they are very accurate. It’s much much more likely to get a false negative than a false positive because the test will either pick up on the hormone or it won’t.
