Does cycle length affect when you can test?

Question

Would someone with a longer cycle be able to test earlier or vice versa?

Answer

Regardless of you cycle length you should still wait until your missed period. Once you ovulate you need to give your fertilized egg time to find its way to your uterus and implant and then give your body time to produce enough hormones to be detected on a test. This whole process usually take around 10-14 days which is why women don’t usually get positives until around the day of their next expected period.
