Most doctors recommend that you wait until the first day of your missed period before taking a urine pregnancy test. This is usually about two weeks after conception. However, some tests are more sensitive than others and can be taken earlier.
This is another advantage to taking the blood test: You can take it sooner than the urine test. Typically, a urine test won't show positive results until two weeks after conception or the first day after a missed period. In contrast, you can take a blood test and get an accurate result within 7-12 days after conception because it will detect the smallest amounts of hCG. Things to consider about the pregnancy blood test: Higher cost than a home test. Have to take it at the doctor's office.
