Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: Hello doctor!!I had my period on December 1st and it ended on the 8th. On the 13th, I used an ovulation test strip, and the ovulation period lasted almost a day with intercourse.
If calculated this way, is it okay to use a pregnancy test today?? Is it too early, or should I wait a few more days???
Doctor's answer:
??????Hello, after reading your description, if you had sexual intercourse during your ovulation period without contraception, a pregnancy test can be positive two weeks after ovulation day. If you are pregnant, you should take folic acid orally until the end of the third trimester. During pregnancy, go to the hospital for prenatal check-ups on time, pay attention to rest, engage in appropriate activities, increase nutrition, avoid spicy and cold foods that are irritating, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and consume more foods rich in protein and vitamins.
