If the test says positive, it's positive, and you're pregnant.

However, I don't know what you mean by "w/c"

Are you in the UK? There are some organisations that can help you decide on your next steps.

The tests work from 10 days after you ovulate, ( which is about 4 days before your period is due) not 10 days after your period is due.
If there are 2 lines you are pregnant. If your period is 4 days late you are about 4 weeks 4 days pregnant ( it is calculated from day 1 of your last period, not when you had sex which would be mid cycle about 2 weeks after your period)
If you don't want to be pregnant you need to get in touch with GP or one of the pregnancy advisory services to discuss your options.

Pregnancy tests 'work' from the day of your missed period and most a few days before. I think a false positive is quite rare so you probably are pregnant if you have a positive test. Take another in a couple of days time to confirm though maybe.

Hope you're ok.

I REALLY DON'T PLAN TO BE PREGNANT AS THIS EARLY AGE.THIS MAKES ME SICK.WE ARE USING WITHDRAWAL METHOD FOR 2 YEARS AND I DID NOT EXPECT THIS.I WAS JUST SO WORRIED AND SAD BECAUSE MY PERIOD COMES REGULARLY AND JUST THIS TIME NO PERIOD CAME.BTW,WE HAD LAST CONTACT(SEXUAL INTERCOURSE) LAST OCTOBER 20.MY PERIOD MUST COME NOV. 14 BUT STILL NOTHING.

You don't need 'proper confirmation'. Your period is late, you did a test, it was positive, you are pregnant.
Please get in touch with your GP tomorrow, they can either get you a booking appointment with a midwife or refer you to organisations if you don't want to be pregnant and need to consider a termination.

Bakingtins · 17/11/2013 16:22

If you don't want to be pregnant you need to use something much more reliable than withdrawal as your contraception. Please talk to your GP or family planning clinic about this as well.

Can you tell your Mum? Will she support you as you make a decision what to do?

grenards · 17/11/2013 16:34

This time I am drinking herbal medication hoping this could terminate the blood from uterus.Someone advised me to have this.This morning I did a lot of research about herbal abortion but I was pretty quiet interested to try but later on I refuse.I know personal instinct is necessary so I did not follow.One blog I read I was terribly shock,sisterzeus.com I read articles and blogs on it,giving me a hard time to think whether I will follow or not but I ended to think only from my personal instinct.My sister advised me to drink a very sour and somewhat very bad taste.I am forcefully drinking this to have my period come.

What?! Please don't attempt a herbal abortion, some of those things can cause a lot of damage to you and/or baby, which may not actually abort. Please make a gp appointment for tomorrow or go to the family planning clinic to discuss safer options.

baggyoldcow · 17/11/2013 16:42

Oh grenards, don't rely on herbal teas to end the pregnancy. If you don't have or want to see a GP, look up the nearest Family Planning Clinic to where you live and go and talk to them. They will talk through your options and give you support in making the right choices.

PterodactylTeaParty · 17/11/2013 16:42

grenards, you need to speak to your doctor about this. If what you want to do is terminate the pregnancy, your doctor can help you get an abortion, which will be safer and much more likely to work than drinking herbal remedies. If you aren't sure what you want to do, your doctor can help you think through all your options. But your doctor is the person you need to speak to here.

Bakingtins · 17/11/2013 16:47

grenards please go to your GP or to BPAS or Marie Stopes. DO NOT try any DIY abortion methods and DO NOT stick your head in the sand and remain in denial about the fact that you are pregnant. If you don't want to be pregnant then you have some tough decisions to face up to, it is not going to any better a few weeks down the line.
Any of those organisations will give you confidential advice and treatment. You don't have to tell your parents if you don't want to, you are an adult, but it sounds like you could do with some sensible support.
Sour tastes, herbal medicine etc is all bollocks. You sound incredibly naive. Please get some proper advice on your options from this point.

Where are you grenards? If you can let us know I'm sure there will be someone on here who will know who to approach for help.

I can't find anything online that would help you but anyone reading may be interested in this document and hopefully bumping up the post may bring it to someone else's attention.
I'm sorry I assumed you were naive in your choices, I didn't realise you were not in the UK with our access to contraceptive and pregnancy advisory services. I hope you can get the help you need. Please stay safe.
