A member asked:

How long after you get a positive pregnancy test should you go to the doctor?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Soon: This depends on you.If you have lived a very healthy life some delay may be O.K. If my wife had a positive ucg (preg test) i'd have her in with the ob-gyn at the soonest opportunity.
