Content: Medical professionals say a positive pregnancy is 25 mIU/mL of hCG or more. From the numbers you read above, you see why waiting is the best option. If you take a home pregnancy test too early, you may end up with a false-negative result, which means, in fact, you are pregnant, but the test returned a negative result. It is simply because your hCG hormone hasn’t reached the threshold of the pregnancy test yet. Wait until the day of your missed period, or 1-2 days later, as your period could be late. This will prevent a false-negative test result and save you money. When is a pregnancy test most accurate? Some times of day are better than others for taking a home pregnancy test. If you are testing before your period is due, you should test with morning urine, which has a higher concentration of hCG. You can test any time during the day if you have passed the day of your missed period.
