Are sore breasts before period is due it too early for a pregnancy test?
Sore breasts are a common symptom of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and can occur up to a week or two before your period is due. Pregnancy can also cause breast tenderness, but it usually begins a few weeks after conception. If you are experiencing breast tenderness and are concerned about pregnancy, it is generally recommended to wait until at least one week after your missed period to take a pregnancy test. This will ensure that the test is accurate and can detect the presence of the pregnancy hormone human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in your urine. However, if you have other symptoms of pregnancy along with breast tenderness, such as nausea, fatigue, or missed periods, it may be worth taking a pregnancy test earlier to confirm or rule out pregnancy. It is important to follow the instructions on the pregnancy test package for the most accurate results.
