Patient's question:
Hello, how many days after menstruation can pregnancy be detected?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if you've reached the day when your period should come and it hasn't arrived, you should consider the possibility of pregnancy. Generally, it takes 7 to 8 days for a fertilized egg to implant, and in the earliest cases, pregnancy can be detected 11 days after intercourse. At this time, you can use a pregnancy test kit or go to the hospital for a blood HCG test, as the blood test is more accurate. If you use a home pregnancy test kit, you can usually detect pregnancy one week after your period is due. It is recommended to have a blood HCG test at the hospital for more accuracy. I hope my answer helps you.
