Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion if you get the same line on 'T' ie., test as on 'C' ie.,control it means the test is positive.If the line on 'T' is slightly lesser colour than 'C' then the test result is weakly positive and you need to repeat the test a week later and also you need hormonal supplementation.Usually the pregnancy test will be positive one week after missed period in case of regular cycles.As you are 2 weeks late it might be positive.Whatever the result it can be confirmed by ultrasound.So consult a gynaecologist for further management.
