Want this question answered?
After about a week.
with an hpt 5 days before your missed period.... or get a hcg blood test by your doctor
This is normal
I would give it about 3-4 days after implantation. You don't start producing the pregnancy hormone (HCG) until it fully implants in the lining of your uterus, then it takes a few days for the hormone level to build up and become detectable in your urine, which is what the pregnancy test is looking for. even at 3 or 4 days after implantation you may get a negative test, if your period becomes late you could test again ~pawsalmighty
Generally, you cannot get a positive pregnancy test until 2-3 days after implantation occurs.
No. Implantation does not always cause bleeding, a late period with a positive pregnancy test is the only way to be sure "implantation" or pregnancy has occurred.
I think that you can take a test now
Was the bleed like your normal period or was it more like spotting? What you could have experienced is what is called an implantation bleed, this could be the reason why the pregnancy test is positive. Implantation bleeding is a pink/brown vaginal discharge and it generally occurs around six to twelve days after ovulation and fertilization. The discharge will occur when the fertilized egg implants in the uterus. Usually if you test for pregnancy around the time that implantation bleeding occurs it will be a positive, however, if the bleeding is similar to that of your normal period it is unlikely to be implantation bleeding, it could be a sign that all is not well with the pregnancy as implantation bleeding is usually spotting, however, I am not saying that an implantation bleed cannot be like that of your normal period, so please do not worry. What I would suggest you should do is to see your family doctor as soon as possible as you will need a blood test to measure the actual amount of HCG....good luck.
This is probably your period. A pregnancy test will probably be more reliable if you wait until the bleeding stops.
I believe it may take 2-5 days in order to allow the pregnancy hormones to build up to a level where they can be detected by a home pregnancy test. Having said that, I took a pregnancy test within hours of having an implantation bleed with my son and it appeared positive within seconds!
After your period is due.
as soon as you think you are pregnant ,just take the test to see.
