1 Home tests are sometimes done too soon after the missed menstrual cycle to result in a positive test. It typically takes 10 days after a missed menstrual period before the presence of hCG can be detected by the urine test.  All urine hCG tests should be done on a first morning urine sample, if possible.
Implantation takes place when a fertilized egg is embedded into the inner wall of the uterus. This occurs about one week after your ovulation, although this may range from 6 to 12 days. It will take another 3 to 4 days (approximately 9 to 16 days post-ovulation) for your blood test to become positive. After 2 to 3 days an early urine test for pregnancy or a Home Pregnancy Test (HPT) may turn positive. In many women this test will be positive after they miss a period, which is approximately one week after the implantation of the fertilized egg. Although some manufacturers of home pregnancy tests say that the test gives positive results before you miss a period, only about a quarter of expectant women test positive two days before they miss a period, and less than half on the day before expected period.
