#pregnancy testing

The accuracy of a pregnancy test is determined by how many pregnancy hormones are in your urine.

You do not become pregnant the day you have sex. Instead, it can take two weeks before implantation. Implantation doesn’t give you enough pregnancy hormones since it’s literally just the first day. So you would have to wait long enough for implantation to occur and for it to create enough pregnancy hormones that a test can detect.

On their boxes, tests talk about the level of sensitivity they have. Their level of sensitivity determines how much sooner you can take them after implantation. You can test a few days after or so depending on the sensitivity.

A missed period is usually our first sign pregnancy might have happened. So if it’s been that long after, your test should be accurate.

The pill is usually well enough protection that you shouldn’t need to worry.

As for when they become effective, that depends on the sensitivity of the test. Read the box carefully. Some can detect earlier than others. 

For the record, you likely wouldn’t actually become pregnant until around 2 weeks or so after the sexual event. This is because you must first conceive and the fertilized egg must then implant, which is when pregnancy begins.

प्रेग्नेंसी के सामान्य संकेत और लक्षण प्रेग्नेंट होने के दौरान महिलाओं को कई संकेत और लक्षण अनुभव हो सकते हैं। सबसे सामान्य संकेतों में मासिक धर्म का समय पर न आना शामिल है। जब एक महिला गर्भवती होती है, तो उसके मासिक धर्म चक्र में परिवर्तन होता है। यदि आपको आमतौर पर नियमित चक्र होता है और अचानक आपकी अवधि नहीं आती है, तो यह प्रेग्नेंसी का पहला संकेत हो सकता है। इसके अलावा, प्रेग्नेंसी के दौरान कई…

The Role of 4D Ultrasound in High Risk Pregnancies

Not usually.

In order for pregnancy to happen, you had to have already ovulated, gotten fertilized, and experienced implantation. This process can take up to two weeks.

So if you had sex 14+ days ago, testing now might be accurate. It depends on the sensitivity of the test you’re using (read the box carefully).

If you know you haven’t ovulated, then you can’t have gotten pregnant yet. Ovulation would not be a good time to test for pregnancy, because if you’re only just now ovulating, you can’t be pregnant yet. 

But it can be hard to know the exact timing of our cycle. It’s certainly not textbook perfect most of the time, even if we're usually regular. You may have ovulated before now and not realized it. So if you had sex 14+ days ago, you could still expect an accurate test (again, read the box carefully). 

However if you already had your period come on time last month, and you did not have sex between then and now, it’s usually safe to say you’re not pregnant. While bleeding during pregnancy can occur, period-like bleeding is unusual (and usually not a good thing), and having period-like bleeding exactly when your period would have been is even rarer. So you likely do not need a pregnancy test. 

When pregnancy tests talk about how many days before your period you may test, what they’re talking about is that you don’t have to wait for your period to be missed to know; their tests are sensitive enough to detect the pregnancy very soon after implantation, when your pregnancy hormones are just starting to enter your urine and bloodstream. 

So taking the day of ovulation is likely not to give an accurate result. If you’ve already ovulated and experienced implantation, your chances are more likely, but this can take several days past ovulation.

Here’s an article and website specifically about early testing.

Pregnancy testing kits are used for early detection of pregnancy. Home pregnancy tests are simple and easy to use, inexpensive and provide accurate results within minutes. Most of the pregnancy tests are being taken in the home provides. The resulting accuracy is up to 97% to 99% when they are used as per the instructions. Urine pregnancy kit will be used for the detection of HCG hormone, a hormone which is only produced in the body of the pregnant woman. HCG production will be increased in initial days of the pregnancy which will be getting doubled for every 2-3 days in blood. Presence of HCG above a specific range will confirm pregnancy.
