What does it mean if the control line doesn't show up on a pregnancy test?

I just took a pregnancy test and it shows negative, but the control line isn't visible. I believe I see it but its like smaller then a hair line...does it mean anythingWhat does it mean if the control line doesn't show up on a pregnancy test?
anytime the control line is not a full solid line then the test is considered faulty and you should retest with a brandnew test. Most pregnancy tests will explain this in their instructions. check your brands instructions for confirmation. Their should also be a 800 number to call if you have questions.What does it mean if the control line doesn't show up on a pregnancy test?

I dont think the test worked..you may ahve to buy a new one..if money is an issue you could complain to the pharmacy and tell them they sold you a non working test =P joke but buy another one hun it could be a mistake
if there is no control line, the test is probably faulty or not used properly. disregard the result if no control line is showing, retest
Defective test
If the control line doesn't show up it means the test did not work. You will have to re test.
Sounds to me like a faulty test. Definitely purchase another.

Faulty test. I think it should tell you that in the pamphlet that comes with the test.
test again. something was wrong with the test
Broken test?
i would try a new test that one may have been bad
Bad test and results mean nothing. You'll have to try it again.
