It is "Readable" after 10 minutes - it just might not be accurate.
A negative test can change after 10 minutes due to what is called an evaporation line. It will look positive at this point, but it is not a true positive result.

It's not that it's "unreadable" as in physically unable to read it, it's just not a reliable result after 10 minutes.

you just aren't supposed to go by what it says after that long becuz it could change. like in some cases you might get a positive and then in 10 mins it'll say negative. i've never seen it happen but its possible.

it don't matter if it's negetive or positive, the lines on the test will still be there. your just not supposed to go by the results after that long, cause it can change. I kept my positive results, and 2 months later the positve line disapeared, but the oher lines stayed, but I was still pregnant! so even if the lines are there still, and it reads negetive, it's still going to be negetive. if you think you did it wrong, just go get another test.

This is for negative results. Sometimes it will turn positive after 10 minutes and it's not accurate at that point. My positive results stayed positive for months, I kept them.

It is possible that the test is bad. Take another one.
