Trust the test: Home pregnancy tests are very accurate. They are the same tests used in a doctors office. They can detect a pregnancy 7-10 days after conception. The best time to take one is when you miss your period. If you doubt the result you can repeat it in 1-2 days. If you were pregnant the hormone level would rise enough for detection.

Unusual menses: You unusual bleeding pattern for this menses may mean nothing; However, you should take a pregnancy test now. If the test is negative, you should monitor the next 2 cycles. If your menstrual cycle does not normalize, see your gynecologist. if the test is positive, you should see your doctor to evaluate the threat of miscarriage.
