The early detection tests say 5 days before a missed period. I personally have been able to test positive as early as 9 days past ovulation.
Will pregnancy test show positive after a week?
Most of blod and urine pregnancy tests measure the level of hormone called hCG, which is created after the egg is fertilized.

However usually a pregnancy test will test positive after first few days of pregnancy.
Do you need to wait two weeks before you can take a pregnancy test?
Some tests can show positive before your period is even late. It depends on how sensitive the test is. If using an early detection test with negative results, retest when your period is a week late. The test looks for hCG, a hormone that can vary greatly from woman to woman and pregnancy to pregnancy.

Are there any types of pregnancies that don't show up on home pregnancy tests?
The home pregnancy tests only look for the hormones released by being pregnant. As it takes a while for hormone levels to raise to a suficient level for detection, this might be undetectable in the very early part of your pregnancy. As pregnancy carries on, this will most always show up after 4 to 6 weeks. If you are unsure, then you might want to have a "professional" test done at a clinic.
Can you use ovulation predictor kits as early pregnancy tests?
An ovulation predictor kit is used to help women keep track of ovulation when they are trying to conceive. Pregnancy tests are designed to predict a special hormone in the body that pregnant women have. Since an ovulation kit is not designed to detect that pregnancy hormone, it cannot be used as an early pregnancy test or any other type of pregnancy test for that matter. OPK's and pregnancy test are not designed alike, and are not meant for the same purpose.
