Question 1

how soon can you get a positive pregnancy test after conception?

Accepted Answer

14 days is suggested: Different urine kits have different levels of accuracy. Blood testing may pick up pregnancy sooner than urine. If you're referring to a home, urine test, i suggest waiting about 14 days from conception to better assure not having a false negative result. I hope this helps!

Question 2

is there a way you have a positive pregnancy test 4 days post conception?

Accepted Answer

Depends: If you were already pregnant before the date you question, it would be positive. The urine or blood pregnancy test requires that the conception cells have enough time to implant and multiply enough to begin creating the hormones that turn the tests positive. Four days is not enough time for it to implant /multiply/create hormones. That would require at least a week if not longer.

Question 3

lmp was august 4th&i know i ovulated and  concieved on aug 21 not the 18th like my calendar estimated.(aug 21 was only day we had unprotected sex) do you still go by lmp or conception? i got a positive pregnancy test aug 26 and line is getting darker

Accepted Answer

Don't sweat...: Don't sweat the small stuff, as the saying goes. In a normal couple with a natural pregnancy, none of this matters (don't overthink it). Reasons: it is unknown the exact day of ovulation (when egg pops out of ovary), it is impossible to know exactly when conception is (when egg meets sperm), Aug 18 and 21 are the "same day," and ok to start counting a pregnancy 2 weeks before estimated conception.

Question 4

if i had protected sex on june 8th, 22 with no ejaculation. now pregnant with conception date of june 30th with a positive pregnancy test on july 26th, 22 could this be the possible father? or is it from my june 27th unprotected sexual encounter?

Accepted Answer

: If your conception date was June 30th and you had unprotected intercourse on June 27th then partner # 2 is your man. I'm going to guess that you had your last period right after your encounter with guy # 1. If so, you weren't pregnant on June 26th. Your estimated due date is on or about March 23rd, 2023. Use contraceptives to avoid pregnancy.

Question 5

is it possible to get a positive pregnancy test 5dpo then it continued to get darker. if i'm right by conception i'm only 5 weeks 5days today if by lmp i'm just over 6 weeks 1 day. my doctor didn't want to do a dating ultrasound because i knew my lmp?

Accepted Answer

Sure, but...: One can get a "positive" urine pregnancy test at any time, but at 5 days post ovulation, that would be a false type of positive test, known as a "false positive." It means the positive test does not represent a current pregnancy. The reason is that ovulation pops out the egg but then it takes time to fertilize it, and it also takes days for the egg to travel into the uterus, and later to implant.

Question 6

would a positive pregnancy test show up by 6 weeks in gestational age?

Accepted Answer

: A pregnancy test will usually show positive by 2-3 weeks after conception and certainly by 6 weeks gestation.

Question 7

i had two positive pregnancy test while i am bleeding and one negative can i still be pregnant? i have never had a positive pregnancy test before.

Accepted Answer

Miscarriage : Miscarriage is a possibility in this case. Honestly the only way to know what is happening is to visit your doctor. You will need an exam and blood testing in order to determine if you are pregnant, miscarried, or are miscarrying.
Good luck.

Question 8

if you have sexual intercourse on nov 16 and find out your pregnant  when will u show a positive pregnancy test?

Accepted Answer

10-14 days after a: Missed period. Home pregnancy tests start turning positive about 10 days after a missed period. Use first morning urine and follow the instructions carefully. You may see your doctor for a more sensitive blood test three days after the missed period.

Question 9

my last period was at the beginning of january, i had sex two weeks ago and got a positive pregnancy test on tuesday. am i already a month pregnant?

Accepted Answer

Timing of pregnancy: interestingly, the first two weeks before a woman actually gets pregnant, That is, when her menstrual period starts, count towards the duration of the pregnancy. so if you conceived let's say two weeks ago you are considered four weeks pregnant. The best way to determi gestational age in early pregnancy is by way of transvaginal ultrasound.

Question 10

can a positive pregnancy test be wrong? i have 2 regular two line tests saying positive, and two digital tests saying negative. my period comes tomo.

Accepted Answer

Pregnant?: Get a blood pregnancy to confirm this with your doctor.
