Depends on your LMP: If your period is regular and you have missed your period your pregnancy test is likely going to be positive if you are pregnant.

Quantitative HCG: The earliest pregnancy test you can take is a quantitative HCG blood test. It can detect HCG 8-9 days after fertilization of the egg. If it shows a level less than 25, then it is equivocal and might need to be repeated in a couple of days.
