A member asked:

How early can you take a blood pregnancy test? going to the doc tomorrow to test for a bladder infection and i had intercourse on my ovulation day

Pregnancy: Pregnancy can usually be detected on a blood test about 7-12 days after conception. If the test is negative, and then there is a missed period, I would have the test repeated.

Depends: It depends on how long it has been since intercourse. Usually, one week after a missed period is fairly reliable when testing for pregnancy. Some times it is positive sooner, sometimes later. Ask your doc to check anyway. If you are pregnant it will affect what medications might be prescribed.
