A member asked:
Can hcg be produced the day after intercourse? would a urine home pregnancy test detect pregnancy this soon? if not, how soon?

Pregnancy tests: Depends on the test. Many within the first two weeks. Most doctors recommend you wait until the first day of your missed period since the HCG has to build up. Urine tests are 97% accurate. Blood tests pick it up sooner and are more accurate.

No: Hcg can be detected by blood test at day 11 after conception and day 12-14 by urine test.
