Understanding the 'Book' Symbol on Your Digital Pregnancy Test
A "book" symbol on a digital pregnancy test usually indicates that the test result is invalid or inconclusive. This can happen for a variety of reasons, such as:
* The test was not taken correctly. Make sure you followed the instructions on the test package carefully, including the time limit for reading the results.
* The test is defective. If you think the test is defective, contact the manufacturer for a replacement.
* Your urine is too dilute. Dilute urine can occur if you have recently consumed a lot of fluids or if you have a urinary tract infection. Try taking the test again using your first morning urine, which is typically more concentrated.
If you see a "book" symbol on your pregnancy test, it's important to contact your doctor or a healthcare clinic to confirm the result. They may recommend taking another pregnancy test or performing a blood test to determine whether or not you are pregnant.
