Do you suspect you are pregnant? If so, a pregnancy test can give you the answer one way or another. For many women, the two week wait to know if they are pregnant just adds more anxiety to deciding the best time to take a pregnancy test. One of the most important things to know if you are confused about when you should take a home pregnancy test is that you are more likely to get a negative result if it’s done too early.

When Should You Take a Home Pregnancy Test

Hello Clariana, to confirm if you might be pregnant take a pregnancy test.

I have frequent urination, feel bloated, sleepy all time, giddy and fell pukish. Today I took a different pregnant and it was negative. I have 26 days cycle and was suppose to get my periods on 28 Jan. Am i pregnant and taking the test too early
Hi there Rashi! Yes, the symptoms you are having indicate pregnancy. You should take a test after one week of your missed periods to get accurate results. Best Regards
Hello,
I had my period on the 1st of January and it last for 3 days. My partner and I have unprotected sex nearly every second day. On the 29th of Jan I was spotting and it only last a couple of hours. I did a pregnancy test on the 30th and it was negative. I still do not have my period and no cramping either which usually is indicative that I am getting my period. My boobs have been sore for nearly 2 weeks now and I am urinating nearly every hour. Could I be pregnant?
Hi there Michelle! You should take a pregnancy test after one week of your missed period. Best Regards
Hi,
So my last period was around the 21st of December and then my boyfriend and I had protected sex between the 3rd and the 6th of Jan. We had no problems with the condoms, We checked after every session that there were no tears or anything. And then I moved to Toronto on the 7th. So right now, my period is 7 days late, and im really paranoid that i may be pregnant. Ive had slight period cramps and back aches and slight nausea over the past few days. What do you think? I have been excessively stressed and jet lagged over the past 3 weeks, so it may just be that? I don’t know, what do you guys think?
Hi there Kav! Even if you had a protected sex, you always have a chance of being pregnant because it only reduces the risks. The only way to know if you are pregnant for sure is to take a test. You can not find out by looking at your symptoms. This will only cause frustration. So please test to check whether you are pregnant or not! Best Regards

Hi Ghie, yes there might be a possibility that you are pregnant especially since unprotected sex was involved. Do a pregnancy test to confirm this.
Hi alison,
I bought PT and tested my urine unfortunately it the result was negative, and today ive got brown color spotting today 27 jan. its like im getting my period.i got light abdomen cramping. Is there possibility that im not pregnant?
Hi there Ghie! When did you test? You might have taken the test too early. As for the spotting, it might be the implantation bleeding. Take a test after one week of your missed period. Best regards
Hi I am so confused at the moment! My last period was 15th December we had intercourse on 30th and 31st 1st of Jan and I thought I was ovulating at this time? Anyhow I have not got my next period due 15th Jan. I am 10 days overdue but still negative on urine tests. My boobs are killing me, I have had lower back pain on and off, some nausea if I don’t eat but more back and boobs hurt! No bleeding at all! I had an ectopic pregnancy 5 months ago. I feel like I’m pregnant but am I testing to early? Please help Nadia
Hi Nadia, yes you might be testing too early, give it some time and also remember the best time to take your pregnancy test is with your first urine at morning time.

Hi, my cycle is an average of 42 days. my last period started on December 28th and I have been tracking it for a few months. The app that I am using said that my cycle is 31 days this month but I am not too sure because from August to December it has been around 42 days. My husband and I had sex almost every day since the 18th. On the 22nd I had slight cramping and pinching feeling in my uterus. I have not had any bleeding but very light cramping and now every time we have sex I get a little crampy afterwards. Is it too early to tell? When would the best time to test be?
Hello Christina, give it some time. In a week and a half to two weeks take a pregnancy test to confirm pregnancy.
My last period was dec 19-24, my partner and I often use the pull out method, could i possibly be pregnant? Im supposedly late for my period according to my calendar. Also had a negative pt first day of missed period.
Hello Danielle, you could possibly be pregnant since no form of contraception is involved, however wait a couple more days for your period to come, if it does not come in a week’s time take another pregnancy test early at morning time.
Hi, I and my partner are looking for child and i was told that i have PID, so after taking the treatment that was described by the doctor still no sign what should I do please
Hi there Ugochi! Please refer to this guide article for further information. Best Regards
So… I have a 65 day cycle. I have pretty crappy PCOS but that’s generally what my cycle averages out to be. AF is due Jan 17-20 but could come earlier or later. I spent a lot of time and money investing in to finding out when I ovulate which was confirmed Jan 2nd. Hubby and I BD’d during that entire week. (Before and after positive OPKs on 2/1/17). I’m 11DPO…. I have NO idea what it is ideal for me to test because I have no idea when to actually expect AF.
Any help or advice? 🙁
Hello Sarah, given your conditions I would advise that you sit with a family practitioner or one that specializes in fertility and let them help you to work out based on your cycle and the unpredictability of it when you can try in order to conceive based on your ovulation dates.
Hi..,me n my partner we r trying to conceive its been two years…. I had my period on 24th December n it ended on 26th n I had sex form 27th till 9 of January 2017…. Can I bcm pregnant
Hi Tia, having sex directly after your period provides a lower risk or pregnancy, however since you were trying until the 9th of the following month there exists a great chance that you might have conceived. The only way to confirm this is through the use of a pregnancy test. All the best.
if you just had a period on december 8 2016 and it went off on december 12 and you had unprotected sex on December 18 & 19 and had some light spotting on December 21 2016 and your period was due on January 5 2017 and here it is January 8 2017 and still haven’t seen it but having some symptoms all I be wanting is sweets and fruits and I get sleepy a lot I noticed a Lil bit of white discharge yesterday took 1 test the day my period was due took another a few days after and took one again today and they all have come back negative could it be that I’m taking the test at the wrong time or could it be possible that I really am pregnant please help
Hi there Denise! The bleeding you had might be the implantation bleeding. Please refer to this article for information. Best Regards
Hi am trying to conceive. My last period was on 7th Dec, 2016 I had unprotected sex during my ovulation, my period suppose to start on 2nd of Jan but it still hasn’t come. Could I be pregnant.
Hi there Yemi! Please refer to this article for information. Best regards
Hi me and my partner had sex 2 week ago on Wednesday and the Thursday and the Friday after that I can’t remember when my last period was I got period pains last week and still not come on my period when should I take test thanks
Hello there Steph, this is highly dependent on when you should expect your period which you did not make mention of. If you think there’s a possibility that you might be pregnant take a pregnancy test.
Hi I had my last period on the 5th Nov and had pull-out intercourse on the 16th and 17th Dec, I have a 26days cycle. I have been having cramps, my period was suppose to start on the 31st/1st of Jan but it still hasn’t come. Could I be pregnant?
Hi there Fuzie! Pull out method is not a method. There are risks for you to get pregnant. You can test whether you are pregnant or not. Best Regards
Hi, I had unprotected sex and we used the pull-out method on 12/15. I realized that I was ovulating. My last period was 12/8. I have frequent urination, feel bloated, can smell everything. I got took several expensive hpt that showed a faint line on 12/29 after it was left so I took another one 12/30 which showed a faint line in 10mins. Today I took a different pregnant and it was negative. My mense is due in a few days. Could I be pregnant and my hcg is just not high enough to detect?
Hi there Elaine! Wait for your period date to come. And if you dont get your period, then take a test after one week after your missed period. Best Regards
