Hi

I have a question. Can I take a pregnancy test 1 week earlier? My next menses is on the 29th Oct.

Please advise:)

You can, but you may or may not get an accurate result. The accuracy of the tests increases the closer you get to when your period is due. Some women will get a postivie result about 8-10 days after ovulation, but the majority won't that early.

Go ahead a try one if you want to, but if it is negative, wait and see what happens when your period is due... maybe even a few extra days in case it is just later, and retest if need be.
