Most doctors recommend that you wait until the first day of your missed period before taking a home pregnancy test. A missed period is usually one of the first signs of pregnancy. This is usually around two weeks after conception.
After a week of delay, hCG levels will be high enough to be detected. Wait for 21 days to take a pregnancy test after intercourse to be 100% sure of the result if you have a regular menstrual cycle. If you choose to do the pregnancy test the first day after a missed period and it is negative, then wait a little longer.
