A member asked:
I had unpro.sex on day 1 of my period, but the period ended suddenly on day 2. how long do i have to wait to get an accurate result from a pregn.test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Wait until day 21: A urine pregnancy test, done correctly, gives a reliable result 3 weeks after sex (3 weeks after when conception might have occurred), or 1 week after missing a period. If done sooner, a positive result is likely real, but a negative result may be due to testing too soon, and thus lead to a repeat test. If a woman gets her normal regular period, then she is not pregnant, and a test is not needed.
