I waited till my period was missed by 3 days and got a very strong positive line! It's best to test first thing in the morning because the hormone level is highest then. All the best to you!
Don't waste money buying multiple kits too early. Wait for at least 4-5 days after your missed period so you get a definite answer in one go, saving you unnecessary anxiety and kit costs.
It is best to wait until at least 1-2 days after your missed period for a reliable result. If you have any irregular spotting or pain, please consult your doctor immediately instead of just relying on home tests.
Take it after you actually miss your period, otherwise you'll just waste money on tests like I did! My sleep-deprived brain tested 5 days early and got a negative, only to get a positive later. Just wait!
Use a period tracking app to find your exact ovulation date. The best time is 14 days after ovulation, or on the first day of your missed period, to get a clear and accurate result.
