Any time now: Home pregnancy tests are usually accurate anytime after you miss your period. Exceptions are pregnancies that are not doing well and don't produce enough pregnancy hormone to turn the home test positive such as an ectopic pregnancy. This is not a common situation. Usually there are other symptoms such as pain and bleeding. Best wishes!

Take HPT now: If we assume that you may have conceived when you had unprotected sex, which was 15 days ago, then a pregnancy test should be positive, if you really did conceive.
