Timing matters when it comes to getting accurate pregnancy test results.
A pregnancy detects a hormone called human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), released into a pregnant woman’s body. This hormone is usually detected through urine but can also appear in a blood test.
The Mayo Clinic recommends taking a pregnancy test at least one day after your missed period for the most accurate results.

After a positive pregnancy test, an ultrasound is your next step. Safeguard your health by confirming your pregnancy details. Get the peace of mind you need to move forward. In pregnancy, ultrasounds confirm three details of pregnancy:
1. Viability (whether your pregnancy has a heartbeat and is progressing)
2. Pregnancy Location (if it’s growing within the uterus)
3. How far along you are (also known as gestational age)
An ultrasound can alert you to any possible complications such as a miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy (where the pregnancy grows outside the uterus).
