How early can I take a pregnancy test when my period is still irregular?

Question by cassietcetera.: How early can I take a pregnancy test when my period is still irregular?
So I had sex last Friday, and this Friday, unprotected. And I want to take a home pregnancy test but I’ve heard that you need to wait until some point after your first missed period.
The thing is, my period is still irregular sometimes… so when should I take it? I mean, there’s an estimated time when I usually get it, but sometimes it’s not the same.
So when should I take it?
