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.
Since the test will not get a positive result until enough HCG is present in the urine, home pregnancy tests work at varying points from the time of conception. According to the Mayo Clinic, most pregnancy tests will not show a positive result until at least one day after your missed period, or about 12 to 14 days from conception. The one exception to this rule is the First Response Early Pregnancy Test, which has shown the ability to detect pregnancy up to five days before your period.
