Answer 1

First, stop worrying about it. You will make yourself crazy thinking about it. There is really no set answer. I am very sorry.
I worried about it every time.

You normally find out about a week after your missed period.
(5 weeks from your last period).

Even if you are pregnant, it is easy to miscarry within the first 8 weeks.....so stop all your worrying!

Answer 2

A blood test will show if you are pregnant or not 7 days following conception.

. How soon can I test? Well, first you gotta know how the test works. Briefly: the home pregnancy test (HPT) works by detecting a hormone called human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG.) When an egg is fertilized, it takes about 6 to 12 days to implant in the uterus, and then it begins to secrete hCG. It takes another day or two for enough hCG to build up and make its way into your pee. So, generally speaking, the earliest you can expect a positive HPT is 8 days past ovulation ("DPO") and the latest would be about 16 DPO. It is possible to get a positive test earlier or later, but not as common. In my experience, if you use a sensitive "early" test (anything that detects 25 mIU/mL of hCG or less) you can test around 12-14 DPO and feel reasonably secure with your results (the later you test, the more secure you can feel in its accuracy.)

If you do not chart or monitor your fertility in any way, and you think you may have conceived, you should wait 19 days (or longer) after having sex to test. Why 19?! Sperm can live approximately 5 days in the proper environment; if the sperm managed to live until you popped an egg, the actual conception could have taken place several days after the sex act that got the sperm there. To make sure you're not testing too early, assume the sperm had very long lives (5 days is considered a very long sperm life) and that conception occurred then. Then allow 14 days for the embryo to implant and develop enough hCG to show up on a pregnancy test (96% of pregnant women will test positive by then.)

Note: some HPT's say "test 5 days before your period is due!" or some such thing. Please note they are assuming a textbook 28-day cycle, with ovulation on Day 14. "5 days before your period is due" thus really "translates" to 10 DPO.

Essentially, you should remember that your high school biology textbook was WRONG. NOT all women have 28-day cycles and NOT all women ovulate on Day 14. For more info on this type of thing, see the Fertility Info section.

Here's an example. This is the textbook-perfect 28-day cycle with ovulation occurring on day 14 (in pink.) 10 DPO and later are reasonable days for testing (in green.) This is the cycle the HPT companies have in mind when they say "test 5 days before your period is due!"



Well, not everyone's body works this way. Here's another 28-day cycle-- but this one has ovulation occurring a little bit later, still well within the normal range. Watch what happens to your (green) testing opportunities!



All of a sudden, "5 days before your period is due!" is way too early for you to expect a positive test! (I tend to ovulate later myself, so by the time the "gold standard" of testing at 14 DPO is applicable, my period is already 3 days late! I needed to use an "early detection" test on the first day of my missed period. A "regular" test would probably have been negative-- even though my daughter is living proof that I was, indeed, pregnant ;)

Of course, it works in reverse, too. If you're an early ovulator, you're lucky! Check it out:



In this scenario, you could test even sooner than 5 days before your expected period.

Ultimately, it's important to remember that implantation is a variable thing. You may be able to detect a pregnancy very early on, but then again, you may not! If you can't, don't despair.

Answer 3

You'd have to wait until the day your period is due for there to be enough HCG to show a line saying yes. If you take it too early the chances of you getting a false negative is increased and you'd just need to test again anyway. If you ovulated early you could check a couple days earlier, but not before 4 days before your expected period date.

Answer 4

For the most accurate results you will need to wait until your next period is due and if it doesn't come then test. At the very very least you should wait 19 days after unprotected intercourse to test--see this website for an explanation of when to test www.peeonastick.com

Answer 5

Using an "Early Responce" PG Test, you can get a "correct" reading, as early as 2 days of your missed period. BUT, A blood test would be 100% correct. A Negative result can, sometimes really be a positive. BUT a Postive result can NEVER be a Negative! ~Good Luck~ *Smiles* ♥

Answer 6

I have always tested 2 days after my missed period, and the results have been always accurate. You need to wait until you have actually missed your period (usually a few days later) to get an accurate reading.

Answer 7

Wait until after your period is more than three days late.

Answer 8

If it's negative then you are not pregnant. If you keep stressin' then your period will lag even more. Better luck next month!

Answer 9

wait a week and then try again
