thank you for posting your query in healthcaremagic.com....

well azithromycin doesnot alter pregnancy kit results...since twice your report came positive, it is likely that you are pregnant.....
and it takes some time for the hcg level to rise to a certain level so that the results come positive..and that is why on the first occasion you had your report as negative....

hope this was helpful...
contact me for any further queries...

regards
