Although pregnancy is a common reason to miss a period, it sometimes happens in normal women. A period can be triggered by taking oral hormone tablets you get fro your doc. Most would not go that route unless this went on 60-90 days and pregnancy test remained negative.

Conception occurs within day or so of the sex. It takes about 3 weeks for the embryo to make enough HCG for 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.
