When to do pregnancy test if have irregular periods?
My periods are always irregular so I never know if im actually late or its just my usual cycle. We are trying na, so the waiting is hard. When should I test to get a proper result?
I have irregular periods and I panicked when I was 10 days late and got a negative! My doctor told me to wait another week, and then it finally came out positive. Just give it some time!
Beta, if your periods are always late, wait for at least 40 to 45 days from your last cycle before testing. Drink warm milk, stay calm, and don't do heavy lifting ghar pe.
With irregular cycles, it is very tricky to know. I would suggest waiting at least 3 weeks after you think you ovulated, or just consult your doctor for a blood test to get an accurate result.
My mother told me to wait patiently since my cycles were always 35-40 days long. Testing too early only brings unnecessary stress. Wait for about 6 weeks from your last period before checking.
Look, don't waste kits testing every week. Wait for 35-40 days after your last period, or test 21 days after having unprotected sex. First morning pee is a must for accurate results.
My doctor advised that if you have irregular periods, the best time to test is 21 days after you had unprotected intercourse. This is because ovulation can happen much later in irregular cycles, so normal calendar counting doesn't work.
