A faint line on a pregnancy test after a missed period often means that pregnancy is possible, especially if the test was taken correctly within the recommended time. Sometimes the pregnancy hormone may still be at a low level, resulting in a lighter line rather than a dark one.

To get a clearer answer, it is usually recommended to repeat the test after 48 to 72 hours using the first urine of the morning. If the line becomes darker or if there is still uncertainty, consult a gynecologist for a blood test or ultrasound to confirm the pregnancy.
