Hello dear
Understand your concern.
If you have take postinor 2 with in 72 hour chance of pregnancy is only 5 %. But HPT will come positive after 7-10 days after your missed period date. It may be false positive result. Better conformation of pregnancy is done by Blood HCG and pelvic sonography.
Never use misoprostol without consulting gynecologist as it cause complication.After taking it bleeding will start and its suggests abortion process is started. If you are pregnant, HPT will become negative after 10 days after using misoprostol. Better to confirm the pregnancy by USG.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
