A member asked:
If i missed my period, but its only been two weeks since i had sex, could i take a pregnancy test and id be accurate?

In order to increase the test sensitivity you can wait at least 3 days after the missed period and you do the test with an early morning urine sample.

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.
