A member asked:

Today i took pregnancy test and still came out negative which is 2 days before expected period. i am worry and ttc my 2nd pregnancy i'm feeling preggy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Too early to test: It takes about two weeks for an embryo to make enough HCG for a positive pregnancy test. Negative result on a test done too early is not reliable. You should wait 4-5 days past the missed period to do the test. Use first morning urine and follow the instructions for the test carefully.
