Can you test for pregnancy a few days after cohabitation?

Patient's question:

A 45-year-old woman has recently been feeling quite tired and has noticed that her body isn't feeling healthy. Could it be that she has this disease? Please ask: How many days after sexual intercourse can pregnancy be detected?

Doctor's answer:

From your description, if you want to test for pregnancy right now, the most accurate method is to do a blood HCG test one week after your period is delayed. The earliest you can test is 7-10 days after intercourse, but the results may not be accurate. If you're in a hurry, it's recommended to do a blood HCG test now. However, a negative result does not necessarily mean you are not pregnant.
Then, the patient needs to maintain a balanced diet, follow a regular sleep schedule, and regulate their physical and mental health. In daily life, it's important to stay in a good mood, eat more light, soft, and easy-to-digest foods, drink plenty of water, and consume more vegetables and fruits.
