Is it okay to take a pregnancy test a week before your period is due?

My period ain't due for another week but i have been feeling extremly tired this past week for no reason. My boobs are very sensitive especially in the morining when i wake up. I also feel nauseated when i wake up. I pee like crazy without even drinking much. I get bad headaches a lot. I have abdominal cramping.... Should i take a pregnancy test?

i dont see how it could hurt...im 39 weeks pregnant & i took my first pregnancy test with this one a week before i was supposed to get my period. sometimes you just have that feeling. but it couldnt hurt to take one..if it comes up negative then id wait about a week and if your still feeling the same or missed your period then, then take another one & see what it says...good luck!

wait till after you miss your period to take a test.

Hmm it should be i don't see why not up if your period doesn't turn up i think Then you should take a test.

You could try and take one but you might get a false negative because your body isn't producing enough pregnancy hormone to be detected.
