Question Posted Tuesday January 6 2009, 5:41 am

i was unresponsible and had unprotected sex. when should i take a pregnancy test? i know 5 days before your missed period but i don't really understand because i don't know if i'm like going to miss it for sure. i'm almost positive i'm not, i just want to be totally sure.

wait and see if you actually miss it
if you do take one a week later

try not to stress about it, it can make your period late.

If you know you had have unprotected sex and you miss your period you think you are pregant, take the test, then make an obgyn appointment as soo as possible.

it really depends on the brand. there's a certain brand, i believe it's ept or something like that, but it's the early pregnancy test. you should be able to take that two weeks after you had unprotected sex. just get a pregnancy test and read the instructions. if it says to take a pregnancy test five days before your first missed period, then do that. your period should be consistent, meaning it comes every 28 days, or around every 28 days. count about 23 days from the first day of your last period, and that's when you can take the pregnancy test. hope this helps. and good luck.

oh jeez. honestly i would wait to see when and if you miss your next period. then i mean... YOU'LL KNOW. but um, just go into any old drug store or walmart and they should have them. or if you have like a free community sex-care facility they have them there. the tests are annonymous and free. so that would be an even better move and more accurate. ill cross my fingers for you! please please use protection next time!

It depends on the kind of test that you buy. Some say that you can take them whenever during your cycle. Others, you have to wait until just before or after the date you are meant to get your period. I'd go into the pharmacy and either ask the pharmacist for help, or make sure to read all the packaging, to make sure you buy the one you are most comfortable with.
Hope that helps! xoxo

it all depends on the brand you buy. there are some that say five days before your first missed period. that means if you were suppose to have your period today on the 6th. your should take the test as late as the 1st. when they say your first missed period, they are just assuming that your going to miss your period.

there are other brands that tell you to take it closer to your 'missed period'. those ones are more accurate.

someone i knew took the 5 days before a missed period and it said she wasnt pregnant she took another one 2 or 3 days before and there was a faded pink line on the test. and then she found out she was pregnant.

like i said it all what you decide to buy.
hope i helped.
