Home pregnancy tests check for the presence of a pregnancy hormone (human chorionic gonadotropin, or hCG) in urine. They can vary greatly in accuracy. You can ask your doctor for a blood test if you don't want to trust the home test. A blood test can confirm a pregnancy about 6 days after the fertilized egg implants into the uterus (even before a missed menstrual period).
