26 Day Cycle Overview
Ovulation: Day 12

High Fertility: Day 713 | Next Period: Day 27

When to Test for Pregnancy

Implantation typically happens 6-12 days past ovulation. If you have a 26-day cycle, testing before Day 25 might yield a false negative because hCG hormone levels haven't concentrated enough in your urine. The most accurate time to test is on Day 27 (the day of your missed period).
