Patient's question:
A woman is 32 years old this year and has no symptoms, just that her menstrual period has been delayed for some days without coming, so she doesn't know if she is pregnant. She wants to know how many days of pregnancy can be detected.Doctor's answer:
Generally, one can self-test for pregnancy about a week after cohabitation by using early pregnancy test strips or pregnancy test sticks to test morning urine, which serves the purpose of pregnancy testing. Testing is usually done 9 days after fertilization to ensure the accuracy of the test. However, early pregnancy test strips and pregnancy test sticks may also have errors. For a definitive diagnosis, further medical examination in the hospital is necessary. Finally, patients should develop good daily habits, maintain a regular sleep schedule, avoid smoking and alcohol, and increase regular exercise to enhance their immunity.
