Help with reading hcg beta test
I got two faint lines, to the extent that it doesn't show clearly on camera, in plush kit and neg in prega news kit. I got a blood test done.
My last period was 29 june and i have pcos so my periods are irregular they sometimes stretch to 41 days or 45.
My test result says <2 but the reference number for the lab is confusing. I have attached the report.
Please confirm if this is considered pregnant or not.

Standard laboratory reference for serum beta hCG uses a cutoff of about 5 mIU/mL for the non-pregnant range. With PCOS your cycles can stretch to 45 days, so a delayed period on its own does not mean pregnancy. Faint kit lines read beyond the window can be evaporation marks.
Next Steps
Please book a gynaecologist consult to plan a workup for irregular cycles and PCOS management.
Health Tips
If bleeding starts and turns very heavy or painful, seek care sooner.
