If your period is lighter than usual when should you take a home pregnancy test?
You can take it at anytime. Your period will not affect the results of the pregnancy test and if you are having a light period and suspect a pregnancy, the test should be fairly accurate at this point.

Breast leaking in pregnancy usually doesn't occur until at least 5 months pregnant. I would say you are safe on the pregnancy part but I'd go to the gyno if you are leaking, and have not recently had a child.
If your urine is clear does that mean that you are pregnant?
No. Your urine may be clear for other reasons besides pregnancy! When you're pregnant you tend to find yourself peeing a lot more then usual. If you have had unprotected sex and you're peeing more frequently then you should consult your doctor for a pg test or take one at home. Your urine may be clear because you drank a lot of water today. It doesn't right off the bat mean you're pg! !
Are pregnancy tests always right?
negative results can be incorrect, due to insufficient levels of the hcg they require to work, but a positive result is more than likely to be correct. it can however be affected if you are on certain fertility medication.
How soon after intercourse do you notice pregnancy signs?
Most fertility experts will tell you that you won't have any pregnancy signs or symptoms until the embryo implants in the uterus. This can happen about the time you miss your period but for most women, pregnancy signs & symptoms will not kick in noticeably until you are 6 weeks pregnant (about 2 weeks after you miss your period). Some women don't have any pregnancy signs or symptoms except for a missed period! Anecdotally, many women who have posted on the internet & have discussed pregnancy signs & symptoms will tell you that they knew right away or a few days before their periods were due. If you are very in tune with your body, you may notice small changes right away. However, remember, most of the early pregnancy signs & symptoms are very similar to premenstrual symptoms and it is often difficult to know the difference until you miss a period.
How long do you have to wait after your missed period to take a pregnancy test?
You don't, take one now.
How long do you have tafter your missed period do you have to wait to take a pregnancy test?
You can do a blood test which can detect pregnancy as soon as a week after fertilization. Home tests are usually not as accurate until 4 days before your period is due but some are more sensitive and can detect pg earlier. So to answer the question you can do a any of them as soon as you are late.
Yes that's what happened to me, try again in a few days
Can you be pregnant when you are thirteen days late and the pregnancy test shows negative?
It's possible that you ovulated late and did get pregnant and that is why your period is late. It's alot more possible (especially if you have regular periods) that something else is delaying your period, such as stress, or worrying about pregnancy. If you period doesn't show up soon, and you still have a negative pregnancy test, talk to your doctor!
How long does it take for a woman to know she is pregnant?
Every woman is different, some claim to know at the moment of conception!! more likely though, around the time your period is due you might start to have a few symptoms, and your missed period is also a huge clue.. about the time you have missed your period you are usually about 4 weeks pregnant.

Is there a possibility that a pregnancy test can be wrong if your period is 2 months late?
not very often that test proves wrong but if you still think you are pregnant then take another test or go and see your doctor. YOU ARE PREGNANT!!!!Go see your doctor, if you are on Depo or something like that it might be a mistake because that messes up your cycle if you aren't pregnant be happy next time go to your doctor or the clinic and get PLAN B or 'the morning after pill' you have 72hrs to take it after unprotected sex to avoid pregnancy
How soon can you know if you are pregnant?
== == You should wait until the 1st day of your missed period. By I found out 13 days after I had sex, not a day sooner. # Conception usually occurs about 5-7 days after intercourse # Your most fertile period is about 5 days before ovulation # For most(but not all) women ovulation occurs about 14 days prior to her period. According to the ClearBlue pregnancy test accuracy results they are: 4 days before expected period= 51% accurate
3 days before expected period= 82% accurate
2 days before expected period= 90% accurate
1 day before expected period =95% accurate
the day of expected period =99% accurate
these are symptoms of early pregnancy and you can take a pregnancy test as soon as you are one day lat efrom your period.
AnswerI had the same symptoms but I was 10 days late, then my and my husband and I had intercourse on that 10th day and then the next the day I had very light bleeding then the next two days was very heavy, I usually go 5, so I don't know what is the matter with me. So good luckThere is a chance these could be signs of the menopause, if you are of that age or even younger, go to your doctor to get that option checked.
How long does it take for a pregnancy test to show a positive result?
most testers take only a few minutes. but each test will state this in the information booklet enclosed with the test.
On a pregnancy test does one or two lines mean you're pregnant?
On most pregnancy tests:
1 line means: if the one line that you see is the control line, your test is negative; if the one line that you see is the test line, your test is invalid, and you must use a new test.
2 lines means: if you have two lines on a pregnancy test then your test is positive; if one line is lighter than the other, your test result is still positive.
Is it possible to be pregnant and have an hpt be positive and a blood test be negative?
it's not very likely, blood tests are very accurate and HCG (pregnancy hormone) shows in the blood before in the urine. HPT's are not as accurate and sometimes can provide a false positive result, though it's not all that often. Sometimes if you look at the test after the time allowed in the instructions you will see a false positive line. ~pawsalmighty
What could be wrong if 4 home pregnancy tests were negative but you are 6 days late?
Wow, if you took four pregnancy tests, your period could be late due to stress. You can either wait a bit longer for your period to arrive or contact your doctor to get advice about your specific problem.
What store purchased pregnancy test is the most accurate for early detection?
Consumer Reports tests 18 home pregnancy tests, focusing on the marketing claim that many are 99% accurate. The editors point out that to make this claim, manufacturers are only required to show that a test matches the results of an older test already on the market 99% of the time, so it's simply a comparison between older and newer tests. The tests are evaluated for sensitivity and ease of reading. CONSUMER'S REPORT DEEMED THIS ONE THE BEST: "First Response Early Result Pregnancy Test" emerged as the most reliable and sensitive test. It detects hCG at concentrations as low as 6.5 mlU/ml (thousandths of an International Unit per milliliter.) The rest of the pregnancy testing products could not come within this range.
What is the soonest you can find out if you are pregnant?
Most over the counter pregnancy tests will show a pregnancy the day of your skipped period. However I believe there are a few more expensive ones that will be able to determine up to 5 days before the skipped period. hope this helps.
How long should you wait to be able to take a home pregnancy test?
bout 4days b4 ur period is due i thnk...my gf just took one
Yes, if you had sex during those three days, you should ask your doctor though. *you could get pregnant, but if the levels of your birth control pills are high enough, it could prevent implantation in the uterus, and you would essentially miscarry
How early can you take a blood test to determine pregnancy?
About 12-14 days after ovulation is safe (about 2-4 days before your period is due) ~pawsalmighty
When can you take a pregnancy test after he comes in you?
You can take a PG test At least a Week after your missed period. Some people say to take the first Response.. but that's bolonie! take a common PG Test at least a week after your missed period And if it says Pregnant(To lines) -even if the second line is really Faint... - your Pregnant.... if it says negative - One Line- either take another test or two to be safe, or go with your results.
(usually a Woman can tell when she is pregnant because she can feel that something is different about her body and she "feels" pregnant.. however that isn't true with every woman.. and every woman is different...)
I wish you luck... when you get this Give me a Shout so i can be Assured that my answer helped you.. -Pam

Good Luck!
How many days after conception can you know if you are pregnant?
According to the ClearBlue pregnancy test accuracy results they are:
4 days before expected period= 51% accurate
3 days before expected period= 82% accurate
2 days before expected period= 90% accurate
1 day before expected period =95% accurate
the day of expected period =99% accurate
This should also have been said:
This is not a concrete or set in stone guideline. Every female is different, therefore, just because one female received a positive on the day she missed her period, does not mean the next female will, even though she may be pregnant.
For some females, they may have all the signs of pregnancy, and know they are, but may not receive a positive on a HPT until they are well into their 9 or 11 week.
Some urine tests aren't very accurate. I would have a blood test done at your doctors. Yes you could be pregnant but see a gynocologist. These are very helpful in this area.
