When should I start testing? (HCG)

I’m 8 days post ovulation now and wonder if it’s too early. I have sore breasts which I never get before a period and I have also have mild stomach cramps and back pain. Not due on till Tuesday though! TIA

If implantation happens it’s likely only just happening now. Your body still needs time to produce hcg and for it to build up in your blood before even being detectable in your urine. A really sensitive test like a first response should be able to pick up low levels from about 4 days before your missed period but that’s assuming you ovulate on CD14 with a 28 day cycle on average so would make you about 10dpo. Maybe test in a couple of days for a more reliable result! Good luck 😊 x
