    If you are four days late on your period than you can use a home pregnancy test. They have the capability to detech the pregnancy hormone as early as 4-5 days before your expected period. I know this because I just found out I was pregnant!

    Since you are late on your period, its time to take a HPT.

    Your levels of HcG double every 2 days... so if you get a negative, wait 2 days and test again... but make sure to use your first morning urine as the HCG will be more concentrated.

    If you still get negative HPT's and still no period call your doctor and request a blood pregnancy test.

    Good luck :)
