A member asked:

Is a first response pregnancy test reliable if taken with morning urine 1 week after missed period?

Specializes in American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology

Yes: the pregnancy test can become positive by 10 days after conception. By one week after a missed period the test would certainly be positive if conception has occurred.
