The best time to take a pregnancy test is typically the day after you’ve missed your period. At this point, your body should have produced enough human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) hormone to be detected by a home pregnancy test, leading to a more accurate result.
It’s also recommended to take the pregnancy test first thing in the morning. This is because your urine is most concentrated after a night’s sleep, which increases the chances of detecting hCG if you are pregnant.
