A member asked:
I got a blood test for my beta- hcg 4 days after unprotected sex and was negative, is 4 days to early to test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Testing: Yes. Of course. Conception takes one to five days after sex to occur. And then a fetus is not in any way physically or chemically to the mother for ten to fourteen days after conception. This has to happen before any test could be accurate. I cannot believe any honest doctor would spend money on a test in this scenario.
