How Long After Having Late Periods Can I Take A Pregnancy Test?

I am 23 yrs old, trying to conceive second child with boyfriend. My last cycle was feb 1-7 and we have intercourse on feb 14. My next expected period was supposed to be March 1 and I took a test which came out negative during evening time since I had yet to get my period which normally comes in the early hours of expected day. I ve been feeling nauseous on and off for 3 days now. Should I call the dr and schedule a blood test?

Hi,
Thank you for your query.I understand your concern.
Pregnancy test can be done around expected day of period by blood HCG test. Yes, you can plan for it , if you want to get the result urgent.
It is also done by home pregnancy test of urine - after 8-10 days of delay in period.
Thanks
