Well usually ,the average women's cycle is anywhere from 21-30 days in length.With that in mind,I suggest that you wait anywhere from 30-37 days counting from the first day of your last menstrual period and then take the test.Good Luck.

Well, if you are concerned about pregnancy at all, just take a home pregnancy test. This will at least ease your mind.

If you do not get your period next month either, you should probably schedule and appointment with your doctor.

You should take a pregnancy test shortly after your missed period. That is when a home pregnancy test is most effective. Although I have heard you can do a blood test at the doctor as soon as 2 weeks before your missed period.
