Can pregnancy be detected a few days after cohabitation?

Patient's question:

A 49-year-old woman doesn't know why she suddenly got sick and is feeling uncomfortable. Please ask: How many days after coitus can pregnancy be detected?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, 14 days after sexual activity or 7 days of delayed menstruation, you can use early pregnancy tests or blood tests to check the six hormones of the sexual axis to see if any are below normal levels. If they are significantly higher than normal levels, it should be pregnancy. After pregnancy, rest more, avoid overexertion, and follow up regularly. Then, the patient needs to maintain a balanced diet, have a regular schedule, regulate physical and mental health, and pay attention to keeping a good mood in daily life. It is also important to eat more light, soft, and liquid foods, drink more water, and consume more vegetables and fruits.
