A member asked:

We had sex 2 months ago. since then she had two periods. today she took pregnancy test and it came out negative.is it at all possible she is pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely: She is not pregnant from the sex 2 months ago. If she had sex since her last period, it may be too soon to test. Conception, as defined by the generation of a fertilized ovum, occurs within day or so of the sex. However, it takes about two weeks for the embryo to make enough HCG to produce 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. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time, every time. You may consider implanted contraceptive, or IUD. Practice safe sex.
