Chemical pregnancy?
I am today 15dpo and period was due 2/3 days ago. These tests are giving extremely faint lines if not nothing but I am getting a digital positive test, I did on Sunday and again today. How long should it be before I expect a bleed? Is there a way to test my hcg levels? Thank you

I’m sorry you have to go through this, is so worrying and heartbreaking.
@Boglárka thank you for getting back to me and sorry you went through it too. Yes EPU said that with me too. Today though I got these two tests one at 11 and the other at 3. Not sure what that’s telling me as it’s my first time testing later in the day!
The easy@home looks darker than the other ones on your photo. When did you take the tests on your photo in your post? Are those all from the same day?
It could be just that you’ve ovulated later than you think, so you’re testing early. HCG should double every 48hrs, so I’d wait now and test again in two days!

Hiya. I’ve had two chemicals, second time I’ve had very faint lines, not much darker than yours. My period was 3 days late, then I started spotting and bleeding within a day. So I’d expect your period soon, as such faint lines signal very low HCG level, which should drop fast. When I started bleeding, my tests were negative already. You can do blood test privately, I used one day test. HCG home kit is £49. I’d suggest you just wait it out though, otherwise you might just waste money on blood tests, like I did. With my first chemical I called EPU and they haven’t seen me…they just told me to wait another week and test again…
