Answer
My advice is to repeat the test.  You should be careful.  You are playing a dangerous game. You should be using condoms each time you have sex.  If you have unprotected intercourse, you should take emergency contraception. There are many reasons to have a missed period.  You are stressing yourself. You should go to the gynecologist to have an evaluation.
