Positive pregnancy test
The last I had sex with my husband was on 20th March we used condom. Before that on 17th of March the condom broke, so I took an ipill. And I took a test on 21th March which turned out to be negative, but in April Im 7 days late and I took a pregnancy test it turn out to be positive. Is there any chance that the test is not right, if not then what should I do, we don't want a baby now.

Hello There,
Basically Urine Pregnancy Kit works on 'Beta-HCG' hormone level. May be first time when you tested negative, that time pregnancy process has been just started and due to that beta-HCG level must be very low so UPT-Kit failed to detect. But now as process develops, beta-HCG level also increased and this time Kit shows Positive -Test. Sometimes wrong technique of test may give Flase-Negative result.
Next Steps
Visit to Gynecologist for thorough clinical examination and further management.
