Theoretically the pregnancy test kit gives the result when you are overdue by 2 days. But it is better to do the test when you are overdue by 5 days. Otherwise very often you will have to repeat the test for confirmation.

The day after you miss your period u can test. If it’s negative then you can repeat after one week in case you haven’t gotten your period. Otherwise the most sensitive thing is serum beta hcg.
