Home preg test: usually 7-14 days after unprotected sex, test should be positive if you are pregnant. Important to use pee from when you first get up as HCG hormone level highest then. Hope this helps. Best of luck. Dr R

If you're 3 days late and you had unprotected sex 9 days ago, is it too early to test since it hasn't been 2 weeks? I took an hpt from the dollar store and it was negative. I had unprotected sex on the 19th. My period was due, on the 25th
