Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
You can wait for 1-2 days more.Usually UPT(urine pregnancy test)is done after missed period.
If you have missed period then you can opt for urine pregnancy test at home.Two dark vertical lines on card indicates pregnancy.
However Ultrasound of pelvis is the investigation of choice to confirm pregnancy as it can detect G-sac earliest.
Hope I have answered your question.
