Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Urine pregnancy test kit may not give accurate result in early pregnancy.
Better to repeat the urine pregnancy test after one of missed period to get the accurate result.
If not you can go for quantitative blood test for pregnancy.
This can detect pregnancy early and accurately.
If the test comes positive, consult your doctor and go for ultrasound.
Ultrasound helps in confirming the intrauterine pregnancy and in estimating the gestational age.
Then according to the gestational age you can choose to method of abortion with your doctor's advice.
Usually upto 7 to 8 weeks of gestational age medical termination is possible.
Take care.
