hi,
sometime urine pregnancy tests can show false positive results,
because of reasons like,
reading the test after 3 minutes of adding urine,
or using concentrated urine etc,
there is also possibility that contraceptive methods fails sometimes,
so you better go for blood test for pregnancy to rule out the possibility.
take care.
