If your symptoms are due to pregnancy they would be triggered by the same hormones that will turn a pregnancy test positive. Urine pregnancy tests are occasionally falsely negative early in pregnancy but if done on the first morning urine they are usually accurate by the time menses is delayed/missed.

Conception occurs within day or so of the sex. It takes about 3 weeks for the embryo to make enough HCG for a positive pregnancy test. Blood test may be done a day after a missed period. Home pregnancy tests should be done 4-5 days after the missed period. If the result is negative repeat the test in 4-5 days. Use first morning urine and follow instructions for the test carefully.
