Blood test: If you get a blood test for HCG level, at five days after a missed period, it will provide conclusive result.

Time to evaluate the choice of contraception for your lifestyle and be adequately protected. You can set up a consult to discuss this further. Be protected and be in control when you want to be pregnant
