Pregnancy can be confirmed by means of a simple test that measures the levels of the pregnancy hormone, human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG), that are present in your urine. The test can be carried out as soon as you reach the day that your next period should have started.
Your doctor or Family Planning Clinic will do the test free, or you may prefer to carry out a home test yourself using one of the kits available from the pharmacist. Ensure that you choose a kit that will give an accurate result this early. Although many modern home-testing kits state that you can test your urine at any time, you may wish to use an early morning sample because this urine will contain the highest concentration of HCG.
