A member asked:

Is it possible for you to take a pregnancy test after 3days of intimacy and get results?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: It takes about two weeks after conception for the pregnancy test to turn positive. You should do the home test 4-5 days after a missed period. Use first morning urine and follow the instructions in the kit carefully. Testing ealier may give a positive result but a negative result is not reliable.
