Could The Urine Test Result Be Inaccurate?

Hello, I had a urine test today and was giving a standard urine test. I forgot to pull my panties down and urinated in the cup. In past I've had two test that tested positive for blood and protien in my urine. My test was perfect today. Is it possible for my test to have been inaccurate do to the fact it was strained?
