Unlikely: Home pregnancy tests are reliable, so as long as you are reading it correctly, it is unlikely you are pregnant. Sometimes menstrual cycle lengths can vary by a few days from month to month. If you still haven't gotten your period in another couple days, you might consider visiting your doctor to determine the cause.

Could be: If you had sex since your last period, do the pregnancy test again in 3-4 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,
