It depends: There are many reasons to have irreglular or missed periods. It will be less likely due to pregnancy if you are using a reliable form of birth control. If you were supposed to get your period 9 days ago, most urine pregnancy tests should work in detecting the pregnancy, especially if you use your first morning urine. A blood test will be the most reliable test, though.
