Patient's question:
Female, 25 years old. I have been married to my husband for six months, and we have been trying to conceive. These past few days, my period should have arrived, but it hasn't. I am questioning whether I might be pregnant. I would like to ask, how many days after conception can pregnancy be detected?Doctor's answer:
Generally, a blood test for HCG can be performed one week after sexual activity to confirm pregnancy. It is recommended to use a pregnancy test kit to check morning urine 14 days later to confirm pregnancy. After 40 days of missed periods, an ultrasound can be performed to confirm.Lastly, patients should develop good daily habits, maintain a regular schedule, avoid smoking and alcohol, and increase physical exercise to enhance their immunity. Additionally, it is important to maintain a positive mood in daily life, as a good mood is very helpful for recovery from illness.
