An EPT is very accurate, if the hormones hCG is present it will tell you so, if it is not high enough to show pregnancy it will be negative until the level rises. If it is positive you are pregnant, if it is negative wait until your period is 7 days late then try again.

It will probably come out negative. Unless it is really close to your period starting, then it may come out positive, if you are. The best way to get correct results is to wait until the day before, the day of, or the day after you are supposed to start your period. Or go see a doctor for a blood test.

yes you can take a early pregnancy test about 4 days after ovulaion, that is about 18 days after the begining of your last period. answer I doubt it. You need to wait at least 10 days after conception/ovulation. That is the least!

Yes, if you buy a test that is designed to be used before your period. Some regular tests will work the day before your period is due. Most kits come with two tests, if the first is negative, but you still do not have your period in a few days used the second to make sure the results are correct.

How accurate is the first response pregnancy test?

It says that is is accurate 5 days before a missed period. If you take it that early and get a negative, I would retest 5 days later. Sometimes women do not have enough hormone in their urine to trigger a positive 5 days before their period.


Can you take a pregnancy test if you are on your period and would it still be accurate?

If you are on your period is unlikely you are pregnant. Ask your GP if you are concerned.


Can you take a test 4 days before your period?

Yes, they can but are less reliable. If the result is positive, then it is most likely correct, but a negative before the date would mean you should re-do the test if your period fails to appear at the expected time. Blood tests are reliable before a period due date as they pick up much lower level of hcg.


Can you tell you're pregnant within one or two weeks?

Usually by that time, you would have had your period. A missed period is often the first sign of pregnancy. All though, some women experience spotting, or a light period known as implantation bleeding. This is lighter, sometimes pink, red, or brown. It's perfectly normal. Some women mistake this as their period and do not think they are pregnant, when they really are. You can tell if you are pregnant if you have not had a period 12 days after your ovulation date, or alternatively and see if your period is late. Pregnancy kits are 99% accurate, but testing too soon can give you a false reading. It's possible; Your symptoms of pregnancy will usually appear anywhere from the first week of your expected period to 1-2 weeks after your first week of expected period. Your first signs of pregnancy most commonly include missed period, tender/swollen breasts, change in color of the breasts, fatigue, nausea/vomiting, increased sense of smell, and weight gain.

Would a home pregnancy test be accurate if you're not due to get your period for another two weeks?

It would probably not be accurate since it is testing for the hormone HCG and you should wait until your period is due in anther 2 weeks to test again for accurate results

Yes it is, you should take the test at the earliest which is 5 days before a missed period. 5 days before a missed period? how is she going to know her period is not going to come ahead of time? I would wait until the period doesnot come to take the test or only take it before the period if you believe you are having an unwanted pregnancy.
