You may be pregnant: If you are a healthy woman and had unprotected sexual-vaginal intercourse with a fertile man, there is a reasonably good possibility that you may be pregnant. Since the accuracy of many of the urine pregnancy tests can be very variable, it would be best to request a blood betaHCG pregnancy test which will give you a more definitive answer to your question.
