How long does it take to detect pregnancy after cohabitation?

Patient's question:

Hello! My friend had sex on November 16th when she ovulated, but this morning she used a Dawa early pregnancy test kit and it showed no pregnancy. The instructions on the Dawa test kit say that pregnancy can be detected three days after conception. How much longer should she wait to truly know if she is pregnant? Does she have to wait seven days after her period? Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

Currently, you can check if you are pregnant using a pregnancy test kit or through an ultrasound examination. Considering October 10th is within your ovulation period, sexual activity without effective contraception during this time is highly likely to result in pregnancy. Generally, if your period is delayed by about a week, you should consider whether it is due to pregnancy. An early pregnancy test should be conducted. Currently, you have been amenorrheic for 11 days, which is sufficient to detect whether you are already pregnant.
