If semen fertilizes a woman's egg, the result of the test would turn from negative to positive. Otherwise, the presence of semen would have no effect on a pregnancy test.

No, semen should not affect the result of a pregnancy test. Pregnancy tests detect the presence of the hCG hormone in urine, which is produced by the placenta in response to a fertilized egg implanting in the uterus. Semen does not interfere with this process.

After sex and you take a pregnancy test will it mess up the results?

The pregnancy tests the hormones in your urine stream, known as hCG, semen does not affect it. That hormone is produced by your body during pregnancy and is the only thing measured by the test. So no, having sex anytime before taking the pregnancy test will not affect your results or give you a false positive. The only time having sex affects your pregnancy test is when it was weeks ago, unprotected, and fertilized the egg.. making you pregnant.
