A member asked:
I've been cramping off and on for 3 days since 6 days before my period. pregnancy test is negative, was it too early to test?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: A urine pregnancy test, done correctly, gives a reliable result 3 weeks after sex (3 weeks after when conception might have occurred), 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 thus lead to a repeat test. If a woman gets her normal regular period, then she is not pregnant, and a test is not needed.

Probably : You can do test 2 weeks later and see if it is negative then.
