What is your genotyping platform? Did you run imputation? Some of the markers might be located in regions that are similar enough to give a signal, based on the short probes on genotyping arrays; there aare some regions with DNA sequence similarity between X and Y. If you know your sample is female, you should filter the markers on Y.

My platform is Illumina.This data have not been imputed. I think your answer is reasonable. Thanks
