Hello dear
Understand your concern
You can go for home urine pregnancy test 8-10 days after missed period or 12-14 days after sexual intercourse to diagnose the pregnancy.
USG and blood HCG should be done for accurate confirmation of pregnancy even with in one week after missed period.
So wait for period to come and if it will missed by 8-10 days and then go for pregnancy confirmation
Hope this may help you
Best regards

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
You can take urine pregnancy test by 5 - 7 days after missing your periods.
In case it is inconclusive, you can confirm the status of pregnancy by:
1. Blood levels of beta hCG.
2. Trans-vaginal ultrasound scan (TVS).
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
