My period isn't until next week.. and I am dying to know if I am pregnant.. if you look at my other question (am I pregnant?) than you will see my symptons and tell me if you think so. Will planned parent hood do the blood test so I don't have to pay? Or how much does it normally cost?

doctor's office... hospital... not for sure how much it costs, but I don't think planned parenthood pays for that.

A blood test can be done as early as 6 days after conception. This is because the test is not only qualitative, but also quantitative (It not only detects if the pregnancy hormone, hCG, is present, but also how much is present).
A non-pregnant woman will have under 5mg of the pregnancy hormone hCG in her blood. A pregnant women will have a reading higher than 5mg. In early pregnancy the levels of hCG rise and double every 48 hours, meaning that the woman will have an adequate amount in her system to be labelled as 'pregnant'.
I don't think that a doctor will give you a blood test, just to see if you are pregnant or not - he may see it as a waste of resources. I agree with Beautiful, in saying that you do not feel well, and request a blood test, making sure to tell them that there is a possibility that you may be pregnant.
Good luck, and I wish you all the best with conceiving and your future pregnancy :)

I feel pretty sure that planned parenthood will do the blood test and you would not have to pay for it. There are pregnancy test that are very accurate out there that you can get over the counter. The blood test usually will tell you after you have missed your period. But there are test out that will tell you sooner that use your first morning urine. Go to Planned Parenthood and get tested. That way you will have medical advice to start out right so that you and your baby will be healthy. Good Luck

A blood test will show you are pregnant 6 days after conception and is 100% accurate.
The health department would do it for free but you could go to the er and complain of sickness and no if you are pregnant or not within 30-45 minutes. (Request a blood test)

Anytime after conception. A blood test will show before your period is even due. Good Luck!!!

To be truthful, i think of four days is basically too quickly. A blood attempt is maximum precise and if she took 2, then that's in all threat basically rigidity delaying her era. yet i think of i could take yet another one ten days to 2 weeks from her neglected era and you need to have a greater precise answer.
