A member asked:

How many days do you have to have missed on your period to be considered late? as of today i'm 5 days late. took test after 2 days & i got a negative

A doctor has provided 1 answer

At least a week: Most of today's home pregnant tests are very sensitive and designed to detect HCG levels associated with pregnancy within 7-10 days of your expected period. 5 days may be a bit too early still depending on the kit you're using.
