I would say if you miss your cycle, give it an additional week and then take a test. I say a week because taking it too soon, you may not have a high enough level in your urine; this is so you won't waste your money. If you're nervous about pregnancy, take one of those early response tests, which I believe is 3 days before you are to get your cycle.

A few days after your missed period usually. However there are some tests (First Response) that say you can take it up to 5 days BEFORE your missed period. If it's before then, the hormones that you get when you're pregnant won't show up on the test, and it will come out negative. The best way to be sure though is to have your OB/GYN test you.

maximum human beings of being pregnant try tutor an precise outcome 3 to 5 days in the previous your neglected/anticipated era; notwithstanding, it really is about ninety 9% precise when you've neglected your era so it really is sweet to attend till you bypass over your era. As for a fashion you employ it- examine the teachings that contain the being pregnant try. you many times urinate on the stick for 5 to 10 seconds promptly and then wait 3 to 5 minutes (any strains that ensue after 10 minutes ought to no longer count because it really is evaporation strains). also, it really is sweet to take it first element interior the morning with the first urination of the day because the hcg hormone will be extra present day then. some being pregnant indicators are: a neglected era, nausea, sore breasts, implantation bleeding is likewise an illustration (occurs 6 to 10 days after the sexual sex/fertilization and is amazingly mild and purely lasts an afternoon or 2 on the most).

When your period is at least three to five days late, or anytime after that. For greatest accuracy, use first-morning urine, and don't drink any liquids a few hours before bed the night before you take it. You can take the test sooner, but you are highly likely to get a false negative if you do so, so its a waste of a test.
First Response brand is one of the most sensitive tests you can buy.

After you've missed your period and in the morning. The hormone that these tests rely on to determine pregnancy is strongest in your first elimination of the day.

Wait a week after your period is due and the first pee of the morning. It has the most HCG in it. Some tests say you take them at any time but all say the most is found in the morining pee.

Depends on the manufacturer... most now are sensitive enough to the hormones your body produces that you can take the test the first morning after your missed period. If you truly want accuracy, I recommend you also visit your doctor who can test your blood too to check for hormone levels.
