Hello,
The pregnancy tests done before showed nothing and now started showing a faint line indicates that you might be pregnant.
You are still 3 days for periods, so the faint line more likely indicates the low levels of pregnancy hormones.
So, just wait till you miss periods and repeat the test again for confirmation.
Start taking folic acid tablets.
Hope this information is helpful.
