Welcome to healthcaremagic,
The test line should be similar or darker than the test line to be called positive. In your case as you have got light pink you need to repeat the test. Take early morning, mid stream urine for testing. If the test line is same or darker than the control line it indicates pregnancy.
If it turns to be positive, you should contact your obstetrician for further check up. Hope that answers your question.
Regards, Dr.Imaad
