I got two pink lines on the UPT which were not dark. When should I consult a gynecologist for this?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern,

To start with, congratulations on your pregnancy.

A home urine pregnancy test detects the presence of hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) in urine and the brightness of the lines increases with the amount of hCG present. The hCG level increases from the date of your missed period. As it has been only five days after your missed period, the hCG level may be low, and so is the lighter line. Low hCG is the reason for your prescription of the tablet Maintane (Allylestrenol), a synthetic progesterone that supports pregnancy until the hCG levels increase. Folic acid is prescribed to increase blood cell production in both the mother and the fetus, and also it is used to prevent neural defects in the growing fetus. Both the tablets prescribed are highly safe, so kindly continue to take the pills. It is too early for the scan to show a fetus or a fetal heartbeat which is seen only at six to seven weeks of pregnancy. As you are still middle of your fourth week, your doctor has advised a scan and obstetrician visit after two weeks. However, if you have any other complaints like severe cramps or bleeding in these two weeks, then visit a doctor immediately.

I hope this was helpful.

Regards.
