Question

BFP Clearblue but BFN FRER what's going on?

Is Clearblue plus more sensitive than First Response Early Result (FRER)? I have always heard that FRER was the holy grail and the go to test for early testing. However, I took a Clearblue plus test at 10dpo and got a faint positive, but using the same SMU I got an unequivocal negative with FRER. Should I believe my faint positive? Or should I believe the negative? I took a picture. It's in the pregnancy test gallery image # 552573.

Clear blue tests are so notorious for having evaps, dye runs, indents, and making it look like a positive.
Blue dye tests aren't the best for early testing, Pink dye is much better for this.
But i wouldn't give up hope yet! I would test again if possible in a day or 2

Thanks for the input domestic kitten. I used my last FRER earlier so I only have the clearblue tests left. Tomorrow I'll see if the positive is still there or darker if so I'll follow up with another FRER.
