A member asked:

Can i have first pregnancy symptoms 12 days after having sex? can feeling hungry and lower back aching be my first symptoms? if these symptoms are because of a pregnancy, does that mean i have high enough hcg for accurate result on pregnancy test?

Pregnancy Test: Take the test 3 weeks after you think you conceived and/or 1 week after your missed period. You are correct, you need to let hcg levels build up. The symptoms you described can be due to other causes, but a positive test means only one thing.
