Very little. By this time, tests should be picking up hcg quite easily. I'd pay a visit to the doctor to discuss it, especially if you can see no other reason for a late period such as stress, new medication or similar.

You can wait at least 5-7 days after your missed period. Say if you normally get periods in the middle of the month, and you are off by a couple of days you can do that. Either that or wait at least 3 weeks after sex

If they are taken accurately, yes. 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

It takes approximately 36 hours for the sperm to fertilize the egg. That is about 1 day and 1/2. I would say wait at least 1 1/2 or 2 weeks before you take a pregnancy test so the results can come out accurate.

Generally, it takes about 10 to 14 days from the time of conception to accurately detect HCG in the urine. Conception may occur on a certain date however, it can take up to 3 to 4 days for actual implantation to occur. That means that you may have to wait a week to detect hcg at the proper levels.

well if you are an adult then you can go to a drug store and buy one or you can go to certain pharmacys if not you can tell your parents that you have had relations with someone and hopefully they forgive you... : (

YOu can do your own test at home, ask for a home pregnancy test at the pharmacy or just pick one up from the supermarket. Just make sure you follow the instructions. If you are asking who cares for you, in UK it may be a midwife, GP or the obstetrician at a hospital, depending on the level of care you require. In US it may be a family practitioner or an obstetrician (ob/gyn the gyn being the gynecologist, a doctor who looks after the abnormal side of women's reproductive systems). As I understand, you can now use a midwife in more and more states too. Midwives are people whose expertise is very much in normal pregnancy and childbirth.

There are several things that can contribute to a negative pregnancy test even if you are pregnant. Some medications can give you a false negative, the timing of the test can affect the results. If you did not follow directions properly; if you let the test sit for too long the results may read negative after a while. It is important to read the results within the amount of time given on the instructions of that particular pregnancy test you bought. To ensure the best results: * Take the test in the morning, if possible, because your hCG (pregnancy hormone) levels are at it's highest * Don't drink a bunch of fluids before taking the test because it will dilute your urine and can affect the results * Take the test no more than 1-2 days before expected period. Although some test say that you can see results up to 5 days before your missed period the percentage of accuracy is very low. * urinate for as long as possible on the foam like strip * wait for the results

There aren't many false positive pregnancy tests.
The test is looking for (HCG) Human chorionic gonadotropin which is a peptide hormone produced in pregnancy, that is made by the embryo soon after conception.
Since the hormone is made by the embryo it is had to have a positive test from a woman who is not pregnant.

For the most part medications will affect your hair reason being your body using what it needs and then it is expelled through your hair and skin, My suggestion is to look around and ask lots of questions as to who will be doing your hair Once you have found that person let them know what kind of medication s you are taking Make sure that if your hair is strong enough and healthy enough that they use a chelating shampoo as well and you must only use professional products to help and protect your hair and your new color Just be honest with the person doing your hair and you should have great results

A P.O. once told me it would take a ton of seseme seeds; if you take the acid reflux prescription Prevacid - it is practically a definite (I double-checked this and my info was pretty precise about it.) Hope that helps (I googled search it a lot)! ....... Marilyn

As much breast tissue as possible is removed. Approximately 10 to 20 axillary lymph nodes usually are removed.

Absolutely not. Klonopin is a Benzodiazipen and it can stay in your system for up to 6 weeks based on your usage and your metabolism. I have had it test positive for 5 weeks. Benzo's are nearly impossible to cleanse out of your system. I even bought a 70 dollar test cleaner and I still failed.

Hello. Yes, you could be pregnant hon. The spotting may be implantation bleeding. If it is implantation bleeding then a HPT will be negative now can will not be accurate for another 1-2 weeks. You can wait and re-test in 2 weeks and see the result then or see your doctor now for a blood test.

you can take a home pregnancy test from the first day that you no you are late from your period or any time after that. you could also go to your doctor for the blood test form of testing. though the gp will ask if you have taken a home pregnancy test first.

Yes, it will show up under the Amphetamine category. 99.9%+ of companies that do drug testing will test for this category of drugs. If there's only a small amount, it may be below the confirmation cutoff and therefore report as Negative. It shouldn't be a problem as long as you have a legit RX (haven't taken your friends/sisters/pets - yes, even pets - it happens, trust me).

If you are referring to blood within the human bowel movement, it can be an indication of a number of things to include cancer of the colon. If this is the case, please see a doctor immediately. Now there are other reasons for blood within stool, however this is for a medical doctor to diagnose. Please do mot procrastinate, early detection may mean a successful cure of many conditions.

A pregnancy test can detect the pregnancy hormone 7-14 days after conception, because most women do not ovulate until two weeks before your period is supposed to start. It is useless to take a test within five days of your missed period.

You're not even suppose to have sex until 4-6 weeks after giving birth vaginally and 6-12 weeks by c-section. However if you're breastfeeding, you are very unlikely to get pregnant as long as your breastfeed but it is still possible. In short- your chances for being pregnant this early is 1% You can have sex after giving birth as soon as you BOTH feel like it. Every doctor has seen women already pregnant at the 6 week post-natal check. Breast-feeding is not a contraceptive in the West we are too well-fed.

i experienced very long periods just prior to menopause. i was 45 at the time. my doctor recommended at womb scraping or also called D&C which i had done. lucky me never saw that red river again. i think your question could be well addressed by a doctor many things might be wrong. best of luck.

Some women also report success in using natural remedies to treat the unpleasant symptoms of menopause. Not all women need estrogen and some women cannot take it.

Answer:

Menopause symptoms result due to declining estrogen levels. Recently research has shown that symptoms of menopause can be alleviated through herbal supplements and that too without any side effects.

Many different health conditions can show up in routine blood tests. Blood tests can also reveal drug and alcohol usage.

No. An hpt is 99% accurate when the is result is positive and roughly 50% when negative. The reason for this disparity between a false negative and false positive is in the early days of pregnancy, the hormone an HPT tests for maybe too low for a positive result. That is why the tests says it should not be taken sooner then four days before your expected period. The closer you are to your period, the more accurate the results. Once you missed your period, a negative and positive test are on par in terms of accuracy. For instance, if a test is negative a week after your expected period, chances are you are not pregnant. If you have not had your period for three months, you would have just ended your first tri-mester and therefore your hormones will would be at a very comfortably level of detection. Chances are you have not gotten your period because of stress, being over/underwieght, of changes in what you eat or your amount of excercise. There are a multitude of other explanations so go see your doctor to find out why.

It depends on the pricing system. They can be more expensive in some clinics. However the quantitative is 100% accurate compared to the qualiative. **********************************************************
