A qualitative hCG test: This test confirms if the blood contains hCG and indicates if you are pregnant or not. Doctors use it to confirm pregnancy 10 days after missing your period or earlier. This partly answers your question how many days after missed period pregnancy test is positive. A quantitative hCG test: This test gives the accurate amount of hCG in a woman's blood including very little amounts.
A pregnancy test will detect this hormone about one week after fertilization. Most women tend to wait to take a pregnancy test until after they have missed one menstrual period. If you take a pregnancy test one week after you were supposed to get your period, the result will be about 95% accurate. If you take it too soon after fertilization, it may show up negative when in fact you really are pregnant. Pregnancy test are meant to be considered screening tests. If your test comes up negative, but you are experiencing symptoms of pregnancy you should call your doctor.
