Honestly, unless you love squinting at invisible lines like a detective, wait till your period is missed by a day or two. Your sanity will thank you!

Sita Ullal · Answer

I tested exactly on the day of my missed period because I wanted to confirm before continuing my workout routine. Once it was positive, I immediately consulted my doctor to see if my daily brisk walks were safe to continue.

You can test as early as the first day of your missed period for accurate results.

Romila Bhattacharya · Answer

Don't bother testing too early as it only leads to confusion. Wait for at least 4-5 days after your missed period for a solid, reliable double line.

Rucha Naidu · Answer

I totally understand that burning curiosity and the sweet anxiety of wanting to know immediately. Try to wait patiently until the first day of your missed period to avoid getting a heartbreaking false negative.

I tested on the day of my missed period and got a very faint line. It is best to wait until at least 1-2 days after your missed period so your body has enough HCG for a clear result.

With twins, my HCG levels were super high so I got a dark positive even 2 days before my missed period! But practically, save your money on multiple kits and just test 2 days after your due date.
