Hello.Thanks for the question.Urine pregnancy tests are not always reliable.It is always reliable after few days after you miss period.Other better approach is to repeat urine pregnancy test after few days or undertake blood Hcg, this test is more reliable test and can be performed earlier with good results. Thank you.
