HI,
I understand your concern.
Actually, Pregnancy test of urine is said to be reliable after 8 days delay in pregnancy.
False + ve test is more likely than false -ve test.False + ve can be due to polluted urine simple/ polluted collection container.
* I would suggest to repeat urine test after 3-4 days with a boiled urine container / careful collection of urine avoiding it's contamination or burning / urination or white discharge.
* In case of doubt blood HCG test will confirm./USG scan after 5 weeks pregnancy..
Thanks.
