Pregnancy test at home can be done with more accurate result after missing periods. Blood report can correlate with probability of pregnancy if you wish to go before date for pregnancy test but this test has more cons too as it has to be repeated after 48 hours to have more accurate diagnosis.
Next Steps
for guidance connect on practo. proper pre conception counseling will be done.
Health Tips
Preconception counseling is missing part in our country. please consult Gynecologist 3 months before planning of pregnancy. which can be helpful.
