A member asked:
I took a urine pregnancy test at my obgyn 8 days before my period. it was negative. is it accurate?

Maybe not: If it was a blood HCG test then maybe it is accurate. If it wasn't then you may need to repeat a home pregnancy test if your period is absent.

Too soon to test: Conception, as defined by the generation of a fertilized ovum, occurs within day or so of the sex. However, it takes about two weeks for the embryo to make enough HCG to produce 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.
