well i know that they say test that sit more that 10 mins after you have urinated on it, is most likely not accurate!

But that has happened to me and it turned out to be negative, i guess because all women have a certain amount of hcg in their bodies and the test pics up a high enough level with 3 mins and its supposed to determine pregnancy. But if the urine sits on the test its going to pic up that llittle amount of hcg and cause it to be positive. Im no doctor im just trying to use my head. lol if that makes any sense!

I would class it a negative since it was read after the time limit so it's invalid. if she has not got AF and/or still suspects pregnancy I would get her to test again with FMU, since it's a few days later you should get a clear result.
