With a 25 mIU/mL test, hCG should be detectable around day 14 past ovulation.
At that point median hCG is about 60 mIU/mL, comfortably clear of your 25 mIU/mL threshold.
Testing on the recommended date (2026-08-22) - the day your period is due - gives the most reliable result, because hCG has had time to double several more times.
A faint line still means positive: any detectable hCG indicates the presence of a developing pregnancy.
Next stepYou have 14 days to wait. If you test early and get a negative, re-test on the recommended date before ruling out pregnancy.
