I bought a two pack ept test and lost the
instructions which would have shown what
the results would look like. I took the
test and have one horizontal line in one
box and one vertical line in the other. I
cant remember if one of those lines should
have been a + sign for the test to be
posative. Please help me!

I did an ept test the other day so I can
tell you that the cross would mean
positive. Your result was negative

Actually, one line was the control line
and the other was your test result. A "-"
is a negative, and a | is a positive. If
you have a - and -, that means the test
worked correctly and you're not pregnant.
If you have an - and a | or a + that means
the test worked correctly and it would
indicate a positive.
If one of the windows had nothing in it at
all, the test did not work. That's what
the control window is for.
I would test again in a day or two. BUt it
sounds like you just might be.
u can find instructions on the products
website as well as to what the results
look like, ive looked them up plenty of
times but used that test as well i got a -
and l wich i think is negative im sure of
and + and l posotive i dunno if there were
any other ways to indicate a postotive
test.

I have been testing a lot lately with
every kind of test. The control line is
the one that is vertical (up and down). In
the other window, if you are not pregnant
you get a '"-" and if you are you get a
"+" so you are not pregnant as of now.
Just keep trying. How long have you been
trying for?
