Help!!! I can’t tell if these are evap. lines or early positives!!!

These are two different tests taken on the same day. I have the Paragard copper IUD, and I noticed I haven’t had my period for 1-2 months. So I decided to check. Now I’m freaking the fuck out 😣

What does this mean!?

So there's a line but it's thin and half way up!? This was also checked on about an hour later as I fell asleep! I'm guessing it's just a problem with the test?

7 days late and pretty sure I’m seeing things considering I have an IUD

Do you see anything? Is this an indent line? My other tests prior from today were very negative not an indent line in sight.

15 DPO

14/15 DPO, still haven’t started my period. Pregnancy tests have been negative. Is there still a chance I could be pregnant or would my tests of been positive at this point?

Chemical? False positive?

Had this faint positive two days ago but tests today look negative :/ does this mean it was a false positive? Or could I be having a chemical? Still no sign of AF and bbt is still above the cover line. I’m also not experiencing any pain or cramping like I did with my chemical in May.

Period after MC?

How long did it take for your period to come back? On the day of my miscarriage, my levels were quite low. I was testing negative a week later. It’s been around four weeks since the MC and no sign yet of a period.
