3 more days: Wait 3-5 more days and take another test. You can always see your doctor and take a blood test as well, that's a little more sensitive that the urine home pregnancy test.

After missed period: Conception occurs within day or so of the sex. It takes about 3 weeks for the embryo to make enough HCG for a positive pregnancy test. Blood test may be done a day after a missed period. Home pregnancy tests should be done 4-5 days after the missed period. If the result is negative repeat the test in 4-5 days. Use first morning urine and follow instructions for the test carefully.
