How many days after menstruation is delayed to test early pregnancy

Girls figuratively call menstruation "period" because it comes on time every month. Menstruation is a physiological phenomenon that every girl who develops normally to puberty will experience, and it may occasionally be delayed or advanced. Menstruation is also an important sign to predict whether you are pregnant. When you are pregnant, you will not have menstruation. So, how many days of delayed menstruation should a woman take to test for early pregnancy?

The menstrual cycle is a unique physiological characteristic of women. Due to the different physical conditions of each person, most people have their periods every 28-30 days. It is normal for the menstrual cycle to be advanced or delayed by a week, and there is no need to panic. However, if the menstrual cycle has not come for more than 10 days, you should pay enough attention to it. Many female friends are very nervous if their menstruation is late for one or two days, for fear that they may be pregnant, and they are accustomed to using early pregnancy test strips to test whether they are pregnant. In fact, the test may not be accurate if the menstruation is delayed for a few days.

You can take a pregnancy test yourself if your period is more than a week late. However, there will be certain errors in early pregnancy test strips, which may be due to problems with one's own operation or environmental problems. Generally speaking, the accuracy rate of early pregnancy test strips is 50%~70%. Therefore, it is not possible to completely determine whether a woman is pregnant based solely on early pregnancy test strips. A specific B-ultrasound examination is required to confirm the diagnosis.

The above is an introduction to testing for early pregnancy after a few days of delayed menstruation. It can be seen that you can test whether you are pregnant one week after your menstruation is delayed. However, the test paper will also have errors, so it is best to go to the hospital for a B-ultrasound examination to ensure accuracy. If you are not prepared for pregnancy, it is best to take safety measures during intercourse.
