How soon before a period(missed or not) can you take a pregnancy test?

1 day > late period.: Over-the-counter urine pregnancy tests are 90% sensitive to detect pregnancy even within one day of a late period. That becomes 99-100% sensitive a week after a missed period. Take Folic Acid 1-5 mg daily and best of luck!
