No. It will take minimum three weeks for the pregnancy test to give you positive results. It will take two weeks after ovulation in normal course to get periods. You have to wait for about one week after you miss your periods to get the pregnancy test positive in most of the patients. Morning sample is preferred, as it is usually concentrated and have got more units of hCG. (Human chorionic gonadotropin.) For the day sample to become positive in most of the patients, you have to wait for three more days. Still the 100 % patients will not give you positive test, as there may be delayed ovulation in a given patient and there may be delayed pregnancy. So you have to go for weekly pregnancy test till you get the periods. Alternately your gynecologist may prefer to go for ultrasound or may prescribe you progesterone tablets to get the periods.

Is it too early to take a pregnancy test or should I wait?

I'm writing from personal experience here so, I believe you should wait til you are 1 week late on your period. If you are one week late than you should take a home pregnancy test if that comes back positive than make an appointment with your O.B.GYN. Hope things turn out good!!!!!!!!!!


How many days do you wait to do a pregnancy test?

- You can take a pregnancy test anytime after your missed period. Most test will not be right until atleast two weeks from a missed period - If you take a home pregnancy test, it is often recommended that you take a second test approximatly a week later due to the high rate of false negatives (although it is better to get a laboratory test because they are much more accurate). - Sometimes you can be tested positive within 4 days. If not after a week see a doctor.
