Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Could you please tell me how long after intercourse on the day of ovulation can I take a pregnancy test?Doctor's answer:
Generally, it takes 8 to 10 days after intercourse to determine if pregnancy has occurred. However, early pregnancy tests cannot detect it. At least 8 days are needed for implantation to occur. After 8 to 10 days post-intercourse, it is recommended to visit a hospital for a blood HCG test to check for pregnancy. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a patient's health but can also lead to the development of gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to undergo a vaginal discharge test at the gynecology department of a hospital. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. Additionally, it is important to pay attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area.
