can i take a pregnancy test at night

Yes, you can take a pregnancy test at night. However, for the most accurate results, especially in early pregnancy, it is recommended to test with your first morning urine (FMU) because hCG levels are more concentrated then. At night, your urine might be more diluted, which can increase the chances of a false negative result if hCG levels are still low. If a night test is negative but pregnancy is still suspected, retesting in the morning or after a few days is advised. Positive results at night are generally reliable. Testing according to the instructions and using a sensitive test increases accuracy regardless of the time of day.
