Patient's question:
I had peace between October 1st and 10th. My period came on the 16th, and next month it didn't come until the 20th. It's now December 22, and I still haven't had it. I've also been feeling a bit nauseous. Could I be pregnant? We didn't have sex during that time.Follow-up question: The amount on the 20th was very light, and I only started feeling nauseous after December 18.
Second follow-up question: We haven't had sex since the 10th. If it still hasn't come by now, what could be the reason?
Doctor's answer:
??????Hello, after sperm and egg combine to form a zygote, it takes 6-8 days to implant in the endometrium. Then, it takes 7-10 days for HCG secreted by the placenta to enter the urine. Adding these two together, it is scientific to test for pregnancy in the urine 18 days after intercourse.Generally, pregnancy can be detected 7 days after intercourse, with most people seeing results around 14 days, and a few seeing results in more than 20 days. You can confirm pregnancy using self-testing kits or an HCG test at the hospital. Wishing you well!
