How long does it take for breast tenderness to appear during pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I had my period twice last month, one around the 8th and the other on the 26th. I had sexual intercourse on the 18th, using a condom. Two days ago, I experienced breast tenderness and pain again. My breasts always hurt before my period, but this time, is it pregnancy or premenstrual symptoms? Previously, from August to New Year's Day, I took no fewer than ten Yuting pills.
What kind of help I need: How long after conception does breast tenderness and pain typically reappear? Am I pregnant or experiencing premenstrual symptoms?

Doctor's answer:

Hello friend, don't worry. In such cases, pregnancy may not necessarily be accompanied by breast tenderness. It is recommended to use a pregnancy test kit for testing. The test can be taken 14 days after intercourse. Alternatively, you can have an HCG test done, which can confirm how you got pregnant. It is also recommended to have an ultrasound examination, which can also detect the condition. Don't worry, different causes can lead to different symptoms. Patients need to go to a formal, grade-A hospital as soon as possible for systematic and standardized examinations according to their own condition. This is the only way to treat the symptoms and recover quickly.
