Hi and welcome to HCM.

The hCG Urine Pregnancy Test Strip is a test kit for the determination of hCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) in urine specimens.

Positive means: Distinct color bands appear on the control (C) and test regions (T). Presence of both test line and control line indicate that you are pregnant. The color intensity of the test bands may vary since different stages of pregnancy have different concentrations of HCG hormone and even a light color also indicates pregnancy.

Negative means: Only one color band appears on the control region. No apparent band on the test region. This indicates that no pregnancy has been
detected

In your case, it is undoubtedly positive, which indicates that you are pregnant. Consult a local obstetrician for further tests and advice on medications which are essential in pregnancy.
