Hi ,How are you doing ?
You have to confirm the pregnancy , urine test is not confirmatory. it can vary with time of the day, with the quality of the kit.
Best way to confirm is Serum Beta HCG . It can diagnose the smallest of pregnancy & anywhere in the body.
Urine test is positive at Beta HCG at 25iu/ml, even lower levels are detected by the serum beta HCG level
Scan detects pregnancy only at 1500iu/ml
Hope I have clarified your query, do write back if any more queries
All the best
