Home pregnancy tests: Can detect the substance HCG sometimes as early as 4 days before your menses depending on the test. If you are pregnant the amount of HCG in your blood will typically doubles every 24 hours so you can try retesting. If your test is still negative and you are still concerned about the symptoms go see your doctor and get checked for other conditions that can cause those symptoms.
