An STD does not affect the accuracy of a pregnancy test. The negative or positive result will come out the same with or without an STD.
An STD will not effect the results of a pregnancy test. A pregnancy test detects a growth hormone released by a woman's body to help the fetus begin to grow. An STD would not interfere with that hormone, or release any hormones of its own to alter a pregnancy test in any way.

∙ 16y agoContrary to popular belief and what many doctors will tell you, there are many things that can affect the result of a home pregnancy test. ANYTHING that effects the urine directly will affect a test that relies on urine for an accurate result. If you have any condition that affects urine or the reproductive system, the only 100% reliable test is via blood. Granted it may be more costly but you may wind up getting upset for no reason and spending money on numerous home tests to determine if you are pregnant. Generally, urine tests are accurate but not always and certain factors may affect the accuracy. I have had at least 10 false positive pregnancy tests due to ovarian cysts. Upon taking a blood test was when I found that I did have the pregnancy hormone(hcg) in my system. Although I WAS NOT pregnant, there was enough of the hormone to effect home test. My advice, use a home test as a guide only! If positive you need to have further verification....same if it is negative and you still feel you may be pregnant.

∙ 10y agoHPV does not affect the accuracy of any pregnancy tests.
No it will not affect a pregnancy test.
No. Your just not pregnant.
No. Home pregnancy tests achieve their results by detecting a specific hormone present in a woman's urine which is only produced during pregnancy. HPV will not interfere with the detection of the hormone, however, there are other factors which can give false results with home pregnancy tests. If you receive a negative result but believe you are pregnant try repeating the test after a week has passed, or you may consult a physician who can administer a more accurate test.
NO a positive pregnancy test is caused by hormones not a virus

How accurate are hpv tests if you don't have any symptoms yet?
There is no commercially available test to tell someone they don't have HPV. An HPV test is sometimes done in conjunction with a Pap smear. This test looks for high-risk HPV subtypes on the cervix. It can't tell you that you don't have HPV. Most people contract HPV soon after becoming sexually active. If you are sexually active, you have probably been exposed to HPV. There is nothing special you need to do if you have HPV. You should consider getting the HPV vaccine, using condoms or abstaining from sex, and, if you're female, should get pap smears regularly as advised by your women's health care provider.
How does the birth control pill affect HPV?
The birth control pill has no effect on HPV but you should speak to your Doctor about this.
