How soon after intercourse can you find out if you are pregnant?

The standard method of detecting a pregnancy is to measure the level of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in blood or urine. hCG is produced by the placenta during a pregnancy.

Blood tests can give a positive result earlier than a urine test ("home pregnancy test"), around a week after conception. In urine, a sufficient increase in hCG can be detected after appx. ten days.

That's as far as the facts take us. Another fact to take into account is, however, that 25% of all pregnancies result in miscarriages, and that the majority of these are very early. Before testing early, make sure you can handle the psychological strain. Do you really need to test before you see the first physical symptoms?

You'll know when you start to get morning sickness.

Hi im 17 and I recently had unprotected sex with my boyfriend about 3 days ago and today i woke up and felt very sick and i have been craving different foods like crazy..I have a pregnacy test but im not sure if i should do it now or wait like a week or so.. My last period was on the 19th so i have a while to wait till my next one..But just wondering what i should do at this point?

for a 76% correct answer, you can go up to 5 days before the expected period. otherwise you can take it on the first day of the missed cycle.

I wouldn't worry about it, dear. From what I already know about you, the results won't matter anyway.

Roughly 2~4 weeks

Take the morning after pill and forget about it?

ok so i had unprotected sex with my husband well i always do :) but he always pulls out and ive protected myself like that for 3 yrs and i say 3yrs because my little girl just turned 3 on the 16th anyhow we had sex yesterday and he didnt pull out i went pee a bit after intercourse is there a chance i might be or get pregnant. it dont matter if i am my princess is 3 but im curious how quick i can get preg with my little girl i just really felt tired but i never noticed anything or rather i didnt pay any attention but he got super sick oh and also i should get my period on the 27 sooooo im kinda nervous but of excitment if i would be preg.

within 3-4 days

I ovulated a week later this cycle, how soon can you tell if I am pregnant. I heard it can take 7-12 days for a home pregnancy test to show up positive. Is that true?

On the day after my period my husband came inside me because i told him he could do it, i was of the impression i could not get pregnant on the day after my period because that was the safe period. Now its a week after and i am experiencing a slight belly ache and a lil bit of nausia. Could i be pregnant? how can i tell? can i take a pregnancy test now and it would be accurate? or do i have to wait until i miss my period?

would you be able to tell if your pregnant after 4 or 5 dys of intersourse

I have been feeling a bit nausea through out the day. I have had a few hot flushes. The last 2 days i have had a bit of brown stuff when i wipe myself in the toilet. I am not due for my period until the beginning of July. I am not on the pill and have had unprotected sex with my husband. Could i be pregnant???? Should i take a test yet???????????

As soon as you spot pregnancy signs. :) Or as soon as you miss your period.
