A member asked:

I had spotting on 12/26, my period was due today 12/29, but has not shown up & just a tiny brown color on tp. negative test 12/29. is it to early??

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe early: A urine pregnancy test done correctly gives a reliable result 3 weeks after sex (3 weeks after when conception might have happened) or 1 week after missing a period. If done sooner, a positive result is likely real, but a negative result may be due to testing too soon, and therefore lead to a repeat test. If a woman has her normal regular period, then she is not pregnant, and a test is not needed.
