How Early One Can Take Pregnancy Test Inspite Of Having Missed Period?

Question: How soon can a First Response Pregnancy test detect a pregnancy after conception if you believe you got pregnant a few days before a missed period?
Brief Answer:
10 days at least.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
It takes at least 10 days after the date of last intercourse for the test to become positive. If you had an unprotected sex just before the periods then the chances of conception are less as it is the less fertile period of the cycle. It is best to relax and wait for your periods to start.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Thank you! I took a test the other day, and it came back negative. My husband and I had sex three days ago (which my period was due today) and I tested today and it came back positive which is why I ask.
Brief Answer:
You conceived at least 10 days ago.
Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
The positive test is not due to the sex you had 3 days ago. You conceived before this session.
Hope my answer is helpful.
Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.
