test line much darker than test line

I took a FRER test last night and this morning with FMU and the control line is much darker than the test line. I thought it was usually the other way around. AF is late by 6 days so I'm just wondering if this really means I'm pregnant or could the test be messed up.

With HPTs it doesn't matter how dark the line is, if there is a line it is positive and you are pregnant - congratulations!!!

Okay your pregnancy test does look confusing! From the zoomed out test you can't see the colour so looks negative with a partial evap line or something causing a shadow. The zoomed in picture you can see the colour, so that one is confusing as the colour only goes halfway across the line. Definitely something funny about the test.

As you are only 9 dpo even if you are pregnant I would not be expecting a clear result, as that is the most common day for implantation so HCG would not have had time to build up to a point easily measurable by HPTs. Wait 2 days, take another and you will have your answer :)
