A member asked:
Can you get a false positive 24 hours after having unprotected sex?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Did you do the test correctly? Was this the only unprotected sex you had? The "positive" test could be the result of earlier sex. You may wish to repeat the test with first morning urine, follow the testing instuctions carefully and do the test 3-4 days after the missed period.
