I am exhibiting possible signs of pregnancy, but I am also one month from my last period. I thought I was late, but since February is shorter, I've decided to give myself a couple extra days. I took a pregnancy test two days ago, but the tests that test before a missed period have a lower accuracy rate of catching the hormone. That test was negative, but the symptoms I'm having are a little different than my normal period symptoms.
Anyway, I'm wondering how many days is the best to wait after my missed period so I can take another test? In other words, when is the accuracy rate highest? (Yes, I will see a doctor if my period doesn't arrive and my symptoms continue)

I will take it in the morning when I first get up. But, I wanted to know if the accuracy rate of the test increases if I wait a few days instead of just one.

if your boobs are getting bigger and you haven't had your period in a week or so take another test if it comes back negative go see your doctor right away cause they are not very accurate those pregnancy tests.
Good luck !
Hope this helps!

You can do it the very next day after a missed period. The best way to get the most accurate results is to get the first morning urine (when you first get out of bed and go) because it has the highest concentration of HCG.

actual, i merely did the comparable ingredient. Odds are incredibly narrow you may get 3 fake postives, yet having stated that ya by no skill recognize (I took 3 or 4 bout 2 days previously my ignored era reason i merely could no longer have faith it stored coming decrease back postive.) You perfect wager is to bypass to the generic practitioner and get a blood try particularly then sweat out 5 or 6 greater assessments, plus you may spot a touch and nonetheless be preggo. Atleast in case you bypass take a try or blood artwork someplace you will get a as quickly as and for all answer. good success

I'd say if you are extremely regular, than just a couple days later, if you are not that regular in your periods, then I'd wait a week , or even more. The hormone shows up immediately and is highest in the morning.

You can take one immediately after you've missed your period.

2 weeks is the recommended amount of time for best (accurate) results.
