When five days have passed since expected menstrual period, obtain a serum HCG test to be certain about pregnancy. Sometimes stress can delay ovulation, which will cause delays of menstruation.

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.
