Maybe, maybe not: On can do a urine pregnancy test after the weekend, if wondering about pregnancy. The test should give very reliable results by then, if done correctly and read correctly. One can also just wait to see if any pregnancy symptoms occur over the next few weeks, and do a urine pregnancy test if other symptoms occur.
