Is Day 1 Pregnancy Test Accuracy High?
Is pregnancy test on the day of missed period consider to be more accurate or not?
Gynecologist/Obstetrician
Answered on 9th Jan '25
Taking a pregnancy test on the first day of a missed period can yield fairly reliable results. At this point, hormone levels, particularly hCG, typically rise high enough to detect. However, individual circumstances can vary. Early signs of pregnancy include nausea, fatigue, or breast tenderness. If you receive a negative result but still suspect pregnancy, wait a few days and retest. For personalized advice and support, consider scheduling an appointment with a healthcare provider. They can offer guidance and help address any concerns you may have. Your health and peace of mind are important.

I had unprotected intercourse on May 5th and i took ipill on 7th May , but still I hvent got my periods so what should I do
Female | 17
After taking the i-pill on May 7th following unprotected intercourse, a delay in your period can occur due to the pill's hormonal effects. To address concerns, take a pregnancy test if your period is overdue.

Good morning Doctor,, I got my period January 4th and saw another January ending ,, and so was supposed to see it in February but I haven't seen it up til date I don't know what the problem is
Female | 22
Your menstrual cycle appears delayed, something caused by various factors. Stress, abrupt weight fluctuations, hormone imbalances, or health issues like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) might explain this. If sexually active, pregnancy remains a potential reason. Consulting a gynecologist would provide clarity, allowing exploration of suitable next steps.

Hey, good day I am concern because I've seen 4 boils or bumps on my vagina for a couple days now, 2 on the lips one outside and one inside and they are very painful and between my perineum I don't know if it's tear or anything but that hurts also anytime move, and lastly everytime I sit up something runs out of my vagina (discharge maybe) but why does it smells an burns when touches the boil I can also smell it through my clothes. What should I do?
Female | 18
It seems like you have a Bartholin's cyst or an abscess. This could make your vagina painful and affected with lumps. Pain and bad smell may be experienced if the lumps are filled with pus. These problems occur when the Bartholin’s glands get blocked or infected. You can ease them by taking warm baths and maintaining proper hygiene. However, I advise that you visit a gynecologist for further diagnosis and treatment.

Hi my name is Tamz We have being trying a lot to have a baby This happened we like did it then the next morning I had my period I am always feeling like vomiting now day after eating anything
Female | 24
Getting sick after eating may be one of the possibilities and, given the potential recent conception, could be linked to hormonal changes. On the other hand, it might be stress or changes in your diet that are causing this. It is a must to monitor your symptoms. If vomiting doesn’t stop or even gets worse, my advice for you is to visit a gynecologist. They will check you more thoroughly and also be able to discuss with you some pregnancy tests or other evaluations.

Hi, I wanted to know that if my friend's periods are delayed by 15 days, is it a worry? Or it happens normally.? She's 21 . This is the first time her periods are late actually. She is not sexually active as well. What to do to induce her menstrual cycle.
Female | 20
Your friend's late period might seem concerning, but it's natural for young women. Skipped cycles happen due to stress, routine changes, or minor illnesses. With no sexual activity, pregnancy is out of the picture. To restart her cycle naturally, encourage a balanced diet, exercise, and stress management through deep breaths or yoga. However, if the delay persists or other symptoms arise, seeing a gynecologist is advisable.

I had my Periods on 25th March 2024 and Missed my periods on 25th april , had an unprotected intercourse on 30th April, and since then doing every possible thing to get periods like exercise and home remedies i had my exams in may so sleep was disturbed i tested on 20th may, 28th may 5th june 12th june all 4 tests were negative, still no periods. I left my gym on 12th april and have irregular periods but past 9 months were regular since i joined gym otherwise once year it used to get skipped. I had no symptoms of pregnancy till now just not able to sleep till 2 at night and tired all day sleepy and my haemoglobin level remains low like around 10 11 12. I experienced sticky white vaginal discharge too after 25th may and in june too but it was not in excess amount. Doctor what should i do now its 80 days late ?
Female | 23
Ovulation may be skipped for several health reasons other than being pregnant. Sending your body into your flight or fight mechanism, irregular exercise, and not enough iron in your blood can all cause your menstrual cycle to deviate. The slimy kind of discharge you are describing is also known as a normal variant. To help you get your period in order, relax, eat well, and go to a gynecologist if you feel unwell.

"Hi, l'm seeking some clarity about my health. Last month, I experienced vaginal soreness and white discharge, and I visited a clinic. The doctor examined me, saw the discharge, and assumed it was an STI without running any tests. She prescribed me some pills, but a month later, the symptoms returned. I went for testing this time, and surprisingly, my results came back negative for STls. I'm confused and worried about what might be causing my symptoms. Could it be a different infection, a reaction to the pills, or something else entirely? I'd appreciate your help in figuring out what's going on and finding a solution."
Female | 20
Vaginal soreness and white discharge can be due to various reasons other than STls. Nonetheless, great that you had a test, and one that was negative it is likely that you got another vaccine - like a yeast infection or bacterial vaginosis. These can provide the same symptoms but the treatment is different. Consult a gynecologist for more tests and correct medication.

A light period with brown discharge may be caused by hormonal imbalances, stress, or some medications. Therefore, make sure to note down your menstruation cycle and consult a gynecologist for a check-up.

I have consumed i pill 3 months back.That month i got the periods.After that also i had unprotected sex.Now for 2 months i missed nu periods.I have tested using pregnant kit.But it negative.Any issues
Female | 25
Although missed periods could be caused by several things, not just pregnancy, it is still good to check. Stress, hormone disarray, or even the emergency pill you consumed months back may be responsible for this shift in your cycle. In fact, the absence of periods is not always a guarantee that pregnancy has occurred. Check for additional signs and consider seeing a gynecologist for a complete examination.

Sir, I am 12 weeks pregnanct my gp suggested me progestrone tablet thrice a day but I missed 2 times.. and now i am spotting red ... what to do
Female | 31
It's crucial you take prescribed meds, mainly during pregnancy. Spotting red blood seems problematic. Missing a progesterone tablet may mess with hormone levels, thus causing the spotting episode. Promptly contact your gynecologist about missed doses and the spotting.

Female | 25
It's important to keep an eye on irregular periods. They can signal hormonal imbalances, stress changes, or even medical issues. Tracking your cycle helps you notice any shifts in cycle length. But when your cycle is irregular, knowing when you're fertile can be tricky. If you're worried, talk to a gynecologist about it.

Why my vagina keep itching very severely
Female | 17
The itch of a vagina can often be quite a problem for a woman. It may be a yeast infection, which is when there is excess yeast in that area. The products you are using for your soap, and laundry detergent may bring about this condition. To help just use hypoallergenic soaps and wear breathable cotton underwear. If your problem persists, it is necessary to go to a gynecologist to have the correct cure.

Why do I got heavy periods on first day and second day only few?
Female | 23
It is quite normal for the first day periods to be heavier than those that follow. The explanation for this is that the endometrial lining of the uterus completely sheds on day one resulting in heavy menstrual flow. With every day the amount of shedding reduces reducing to a lighter flow. Nevertheless, should you develop unusual heavy bleeding or uncommonly long periods of menstrual flows visited a gynecologist for the assessment and treatment.

When should I take a pregnancy test being 11 days late and sexually active?
Female | 16
If 11 days have passed since the date of the expected period but you have done the love deeds, it is a good idea to check whether you are pregnant. Irregular periods and being sexually active are among the most common signs of pregnancy. You can be pregnant if you haven't used a condom while you have sex. Pregnancy tests that you can do at home are an accurate method to find out. The tests reveal pregnancy hormones in your urine.
