When do I take a pregnancy test?

If I am pregnant, I would only be about a week and a half, so it's still really early. BUT- my period is supposed to start this week sometime. I have PCOS so I don't know an exact date that it will start, it's usually Thursday or Friday but sometimes it will be earlier or later...so I can never really tell. How soon can I take the test to get an accurate result? If I took a test tomorrow morning would it be accurate since my period is supposed to start this week?

    You should take it about a week after your missed period, so if you took one now (before you've missed your period) you probably won't get an accurate result. Given that you don't know exactly when your period should start, but you assume it will be Thursday or Friday, maybe do a test on Monday?

    But if you really think you might be pregnant, you should probably go to your doctor and get it checked out properly.

    Good luck whatever you choose, hope this helps!

    you should wait till your period is definately late for the most accurate results, so test like sunday or monday
