How long after pregnancy can the results be checked?

Patient's question:

I am 27 years old. In the past, my menstruation was relatively normal. Now, it has been delayed for more than a week, and I don't know if I might be pregnant. Please ask: How long after pregnancy can it be detected?

Doctor's answer:

If your menstrual cycle is regular, with periods occurring every 28-30 days, a delay of one week can usually indicate whether you are pregnant. You can first use a pregnancy test kit for a preliminary check. Generally, a delay of one week can be detected using a pregnancy test kit, while a delay of half a month can be confirmed through an ultrasound to determine if it is an intrauterine pregnancy or an ectopic pregnancy. Finally, it is important to develop good daily habits, maintain a regular schedule, avoid smoking and alcohol, and increase physical exercise to enhance the patient's immunity.
