What if the second line on the Male Fertility Test is much lighter than the control line?

Unlike ovulation tests where the relative darkness of the test line (as compared to the control line) is important to determine the test result, for the Male Fertility to be positive, the second line (the test line) simply has to appear within 10 minutes for it to be considered a positive result. The relative darkness between the two lines does not matter. If a second line appears on the Male Fertility Test, even if it is lighter than the control line this is a positive and indicates that sperm concentration is above the 15 million/mL threshold.

If the second line is EXTREMELY faint (barely visible unless you really look for it)  but it does appear within 10 minutes, it is an indication that sperm concentration is likely very close to the test threshold of 15 million sperm per mL of semen. Though it is not impossible to get pregnant with sperm concentrations at that level, it may pose some challenges. Every person's journey to conceive and life circumstances are different so we always recommend that the best course of action should be decided between you, your partner and your medical doctor. Depending on age and where people are in their journey to conceive, some customers who experience results like this may opt to try lifestyle changes that have been shown to improve sperm concentration; in those circumstances we suggest people wait at least 3 months before performing another Male Fertility Test, in order to give enough time for the lifestyle changes to impact the male's sperm concentration.
