Patient's question:

How long after cohabitation can a pregnancy test be used to accurately determine if pregnancy has occurred?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if your menstrual cycle is regular, you can take a pregnancy test 14 days after intercourse. It becomes more accurate a few days after your period is delayed. The earliest you can have a blood test to check progesterone and hCG levels to determine if you are pregnant is 10 days after intercourse.
