Question

How long does it take for evap lines to show?

I took a CVS early result preg test today 11dpo at 1PM. Tonight, several hours later, the control line is darker and I now have a faint line in the result window? Could this be a positive or just an evap line?

I hope I can help! First of all I think that evap lines are like a greyish ghosty color but i've had one be the same color as the test before which was blue and sorry to disappoint ya hun, but from all the tests i've taken what you got there is most likely an evap line because they show up hours later i know from experience. And I thought i had an evap line but my positive showed up right away and i ended up having a miscarriage so i was pregnant. But, i could also be wrong and my best advice is take another in a few days and if your line gets darker not the control line the result line, then you are pregnant but if not then you probably aren't but to be ultimately sure by your dpo, it would show on a blood test so you might want to do that! I hope i helped! but good luck anyway and baby dust****

I suggest that you take another test first thing tomorrow morning. The best time to take a pregnancy test is with first morning urine, the HCG that you are testing for is more concentrated. And I hate to tell you but every test I've seen has instructions that tell you when to check the test (usually between 3-5 minutes) and say that the results are not valid after that. I have done the same thing, look at it again several hours later and have also seen a faint positive but was not pregnant. Good luck! Baby dust to you!!
