Brief Answer:
Get Serum HCG levels.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome To HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney.
The chances of false positive pregnancy test after stopping Haloperidol a month ago are very less.
However you need to be sure. So best way out is to get Serum HCG levels for pregnancy done.
Also if you have missed your periods after having an unprotected sex with a Urine pregnancy test done, then chances are almost complete that your are pregnant.
If you have any further query, please ask me.
