With PCOS, periods can be irregular and very early testing may show a faint line or evaporation line. A single test 1 day late is not fully reliable.
What to do next:
Repeat a urine
pregnancy test after 48–72 hours using first-morning urine.
For confirmation, get a blood β-hCG test.
If tests remain negative and periods don’t come, consult a gynecologist.
Tip: Avoid over-interpreting faint lines read after the recommended time window.
