If a woman is on her period could that affect the results of a pregnancy test?

If a woman is having her period, then she cannot be pregnant. Menstruation is a direct result of "failed fertilization", i.e. the egg (ovum) was not fertilized by a sperm cell. Therefore, women stop having their period when they conceive, since fertilization was successful and the production of ova (eggs) has ceased.
