How long before you can take a pregnancy test to tell you if you are pregnant?

A pregnancy test can typically detect pregnancy hormones in urine about 7-10 days after conception, although some tests claim to be able to detect pregnancy even earlier.

If you take a test too early, you may get a false negative result due to low levels of pregnancy hormones in your system.
