Hi.
I've gone through your query and I can understand your anxiety.

You should wait for a week after your missed period for the most accurate results of pregnancy test. Only during this period, detectable levels of HCG develops in the body.

If you check a day or within 2-3 after your expected period in the morning hours, 10 - 20 % of pregnancy won't be detected.

Though you experience early signs of pregnancy, I advice you not to be anxious & also to wait for 7-10days & to do a retest.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care.

Regards,
Dr. Yogapriya V, General and family physician.
