When should I take a home pregnancy test? Many home pregnancy tests claim to be accurate as early as the first day of a missed period â or even before. You're likely to get more accurate results, however, if you wait until after the first day of your missed period or, better yet, one week after your missed period. Why wait?

However, research suggests that many home pregnancy tests are not sensitive enough to diagnose pregnancy in women who have recently missed a period. For the most reliable results, wait to take the test until one week after your missed period.
