When should I take a home pregnancy test? Many home pregnancy tests claim to be accurate as early as the first day of a missed period â or even before. You're likely to get more accurate results, however, if you wait until after the first day of your missed period or, better yet, one week after your missed period. Why wait?
The best time to take an at home test is first thing in the morning and with first morning urine because that's when the urine is most concentrated and has the highest level of the pregnancy hormone hCG. Try not to get up and go to the bathroom during the night and then do the test as soon as you get up. A blood pregnancy test is usually positive several days before the mised period. A urine pregnancy test is usuall positive 1-2 days before or after you miss your menstrual period bleeding.
