Patient's question:
How long has it been since you found out you were pregnant? Thank you, doctor. I used a pregnancy test to find out.Doctor's answer:
If the menstrual cycle is regular, the time of pregnancy is calculated from the first day of the last menstrual period. Generally, pregnancy is confirmed earliest around 30 days after the last menstrual period through a urine pregnancy test.Suggestions: If you cannot remember the date of your last menstrual period or if your menstrual cycle is irregular, it is recommended that you undergo an ultrasound examination to determine the duration of pregnancy, calculate the corresponding estimated due date, and note that the gestational age in the early stages of pregnancy is relatively accurate based on ultrasound calculations.
