How many weeks pregnant can a pregnancy test be used to detect?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

,Typically, pregnancy can be detected 10 to 14 days after sexual intercourse, and the later the test, the more accurate it is. This varies greatly from person to person, so there's no need to rush if your period hasn't arrived yet. Rushing won't help. It's better to wait until your period is delayed by more than 5 days before testing.
