Okay to do test: Did you have unprotected sex since your last regular period? If no, there is no reason for the test. You may do hpt and if it is negative repeat it in 4-5 days. Use first morning urine and follow the instructions for the test carefully. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time, every time. You may consider implanted contraceptive, or IUD. Practice safe sex. Get HPV vaccine.
