Does gynecological inflammation affect the accuracy of pregnancy tests?

Patient's question:

Two months ago, I contracted a gynecological disease, and this month, my period hasn't come. I used a pregnancy test kit and got two lines again. I'm very worried if I might be pregnant. Recently, I've had a cold and have taken a lot of medicine. Could it be the gynecological inflammation that's causing the pregnancy test kit to show two lines?

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, gynecological inflammation will never affect the accuracy of pregnancy test strips. The test results of pregnancy test strips may be inaccurate. You can prepare several test strips for retesting. If it still shows pregnancy, it could be delivery. You can go to the hospital for relevant tests to determine if you can carry the pregnancy. If you do get pregnant, be prepared to welcome a new life. If you have gynecological inflammation, you need to seek treatment as soon as possible. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
