Lighter tests?

Question

Hey, so I'm 8 weeks along and have my placement scan on friday. I have had no issues but some slight cramping last weekend. I decided to take a test today just to see those two red lines (because this is surreal) and I've had nothing but blazing dark lines lately then todays was a little lighter. Should I be concerned? Trying not to worry after ectopic and miscarriage in 2019.

Answer

I had this today.. I'm 8 weeks and 4 days... I had a lighter line test.. Read up about your hormone levels being to high that the test can't deal with it... Then about peeing in a cup and adding 50% water to dilute and it should come up darker... Which I did and there it was big dark line again

Answer

There’s a thing called a hook effect. Once the hcg gets to a certain level tests can’t read it and will show as negative
