We tried this cycle and im so eager i almost want to test already, its barely been 2 weeks. Will it even show anything this early or am i just wasting strips? someone tell me when you got your positive.
Dont stress and test too soon yaar, you'll just keep staring at the strip. Give it till your period is late. The wait is painful but worth it for a clear answer.
I tested too early once out of excitement and it was negative, then later it was positive. So I'd say dont rush. Waiting for the missed period is harder but more accurate.
My doctor explained that 2 weeks is usually too early since hCG hasnt built up enough yet. Best to test after your missed period for an accurate result. A blood test can pick it up slightly earlier than the strip though.
Usually too early at 2 weeks, you'll likely get a false negative and stress for nothing. Wait till your period is actually late and then test with morning urine. Much more reliable that way.
From what I learnt, 2 weeks after the act is around when your period is due, so it depends on timing. A blood beta hCG test detects earlier than home strips. But honestly waiting a few more days saves a lot of confusion.
