Pregnancy test on Tisha B’Av
07/08/2022

Question

I wanted to know If I can take a pregnancy test on Tisha B’av.
I am trying to conceive for a while and am taking progesterone because of a few early losses. I need to test 2 weeks after ovulation and if it’s negative, stop progesterone. Two weeks after ovulation comes out on Tisha B’av.
Thank you!

Thank you for reaching out to us.
There is no constraint on taking a pregnancy test during the fast.
