you can take a first response test up to
five days before your missed
period.......It still may not give you
accurate results though.

if its only been 3 days since you had sex,
then you have to wait......Normally
implantation takes between 6-14 days, its
only after implantation that hcg is
produced (this is the hormone that is
dected in pregnancy tests) so basically
you will have to wait to take a
test....For at least 7 more days.

3 days since what, having sex? That's
waaaaay too early to test. The sperm
would barely have time to reach your egg
(if it's even been released yet), much
less for the egg to reach your uterus and
implant.
I know waiting drives you crazy. I went
through the same thing. But testing now
will only give you a negative result,
whether you're truly pregnant or not, and
you'll end up having to test again anyway.
I know it's hard, but you're going to
need to wait a couple of weeks. Give your
body time to build up the pregnancy
hormones that the test detects.

It all depends when you ovulate. If you
have just ovulated and then concieved it
will take normally anywhere between 6-12
days for implantation. The average woman
implants on day 9 . You have to test when
your period is just about due ...If you
dont know because you are irregular your
gonna have to wait until the longets cycle
youve had thus far.

Ept ones you can take 5 days before your
missed period. Or go to your doctor for a
blood test
