Question 5

took a pregnency test a week after sex came out positive, is it valid?

Accepted Answer

Pregnancy test: The at home pregnancy tests are usually very reliable but can give you "false positives", i.e. They say they're positive, but in reality it's not for a true pregnancy.  You can repeat the at home pregnancy test or get a blood HCG test from your doctor. An ultrasound will also confirm pregnancy that's occurring within the uterus and not somewhere else (fallopian tubes). Hope this helps!

Question 7

how long should i wait to take a pregancy test after sex?

Accepted Answer

10-14 days: If you have sex at the fertile time when you are ovulating, the soonest you will have a positive pregnancy test is 10 to 14 days later.  It will be positive by the time you miss a period.

Question 8

when would a blood test be totally accurate in terms of after sex?

Accepted Answer

Blood Pregnancy Test: It really should be effective at the time a period is missed (and possibly prior to that).

Question 9

next period is far away. can i test 20 days after sex with a first response & get an accurate result?

Accepted Answer

How to get pregnant: If your period is 'far away' why would you be worried that you are pregnant. If you had sex early in your cycle when you were not fertile then you did not get pregnant. It is thought that any testing before you  have missed a period is a waste of money because it would be too soon to test.

Question 10

how accurate are hpt? can i rely on the result? took test 8 weeks after sex. all 4 came back negative.

Accepted Answer

Reliable: If the test is done correctly and is done 7-10 days past the missed period, the results are reliable. If a correctly done test was negative at 8 week after sex, you are not pregnant.
