New here to posting, but I have been stalking this site for a month...these past few days more than ever since we are TTC.
Anywho...I just wanted to post some updated information because I googled this question and found answers from years ago. The question is: could a faint line on an opk indicate pregnancy?
Many people will say 'no' it has to be a dark line...and that opks cannot detect pregnancy before a hpt can. However, if you are one of those rare cases like me this is not true.
I took a HPT on 7DPO and it was negative. 8DPO I took 2 hpts in the Am and they both were neg (to me). I threw a packet in my purse and it was until I was getting ready to test I noticed it was an opk. I tested anyways and it had a faint line. I took another one that evening alond with a first response and the hpt was neg, opk faint positive.
So today 9DPO I just so happen to look in the trash bin and seen 2 lines on my hpt, the test line very faint although. So i decided to take an opk with SMU and it was still a faint positive. At 146 I took a hpt and a faint line came up after 10 mins (which I figured might be an evap line). Fed up with this, I went and purchased a clearblue digi and tested again. 'pregnant' showed up within one min.
I said all that to say this, my OPK picked up my hcg before an hpt test did. Also, a digi test picked up my hcg before one of the "more sensitive" line tests. GOOD LUCK TO ALL TTC!
