I don't think there is any cause for confusion. You had a normal period on 27 October. You said that you didn't have intercourse after 20 August. Your period is due on 27 November (or around that time) . Then why you had to do B HCG on 15 November and UPT on 24 November. You should have atleast waited till 27 November.
Your UPT is not positive. We expect much darker line in the Test . This line is very faint.
Please wait till 27 November. If you don't get your periods on that date then you can do repeat urine pregnancy test on 30 November.
