Is a pregnancy test accurate if negative 4 days after your missed period. last menstrual cycle 3/12 and last time i had sex was 3/18. also on the mini pill?

A quality home pregnancy test, if properly used, would be accurate several days after a missed period. If any doubt repeat it a few days later. Your scenario makes pregnancy quite unlikely.

It is unlikely that you are pregnant. You may repeat the home test in 4-5 days, or alternatively get a blood test for HCG level to settle the issue. Wish you good health!
