They say your HCG doubles every 48 hours or something like that. So you could take a test in a day or two.  :)

Generic tests work better than the pricey ones, in my opinion. I never could get an accurate reading with the expensive ones. Anyway, you should take a test in three days. You may have done the test wrong. If you drink a ton of water and then go take a test, your test could become negative because you drank so much water it diluted the HCG in your system.

Your urine needs to stay in your system for an hour so that the HCG number goes up. So you either need to test in the morning when you first get up, or you need to hold your pee for an hour. If you still don't get a period or a positive, you see your doctor. You might just be stressed or have a more serious issue.
