Testing for Pregnancy 2 Days Post-Sex: Possible

Patient's Query

Is it possible two days after sexual intercourse to test if you are pregnant?

Gynaecology

Answered by Dr. Swapna Chekuri

PREGNANCY TESTS can detect pregnancy hormones 2 weeks after conception. It's unlikely to detect pregnancy within 2 days post-sex!!! A wait of at least 1 week after missed period ideal... Using test kits too early may give false negative results. CONSULT a doctor if pregnancy suspected for accurate testing.

I have light bleeding which started today not sure if its period or implantation bleeding Symptoms tiredness Nausea slightly Headache Tender breast

Female | 42

Light bleeding can be difficult to spot. If you are always sleepy, feeling a bit nauseous, having headaches, and your breasts are sore, it may be your body adjusting to some changes. These signs can be noticed during your period or implantation when a fertilized egg attaches to the uterus. To be sure, take a pregnancy test.

I am 16 year old female, suffering from extreme fatigue and had no periods from last 3 months , I have heavy and prolonged bleeding during my periods and I am having extreme weight gain

Female | 16

These symptoms such as extreme fatigue, irregular periods, a lot of bleeding, and quick weight gain that you have mentioned are not common issues for someone your age. The underlying cause of these conditions might be a hormonal imbalance say, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Therefore you must visit a gynecologist to get checked and find the best cure.

I take abortions pill but only one day normal bleeding

Female | 23

Bleeding after taking abortion pills is normal and can last for several days, similar to a period. Some may also experience cramps, nausea, and tiredness. The pills work by causing the uterus to shed its lining. It’s important to rest, stay hydrated, and use pads during this time. But if bleeding's heavy or prolonged, see a gynecologist.

I experienced blood spot in my panty after 2 weeks of periods. What is the reason behind it?

Female | 29

Finding blood spots in your underwear after your period is usually not a big deal. It often happens due to hormonal shifts or irregular shedding of the uterine lining. Lifestyle changes and stress can also contribute to this. Keep an eye on your symptoms, and if you have any concerns, let your gynecologist know.

I have a pcos i am taking pills for pcos last 3 months suggested by my obgyn but my obgyn stop my pills last february to see if i will get my period this first week of march. But march 1 had sem he cums a little inside his cums look like egg white with a little clear white. Its been 6 days since we had sex and up until now i didnt have a period could it be say that i am pregnant?

Female | 18

It's understandable to be concerned about your cycle, especially after stopping medication for PCOS. While irregular periods are common with this condition, the absence of menstruation post-intercourse could suggest pregnancy, especially if the timing was close to ovulation. Symptoms like changes in cervical mucus, missed periods, or sensitivity can indicate pregnancy. I recommend taking a home pregnancy test for clarity. Regardless of the outcome, it's best to consult your gynecologist for personalized advice and to discuss your menstrual irregularities. They can provide support and determine the next steps for your health journey.

Bonsoir ma belle mere vien opéré un polype il y a 1mois mais la un autre polype et revenu esque cest dangereux

Female | 63

The polyps may return after an operation, but that is not necessarily dangerous. The polyps usually do not have symptoms, however, and occasionally there is bleeding or an upset stomach. In case the polype repeats, it is significant to go to your gynecologist to talk about the treatment options. Sometimes only regular check-ups are required, but other times, another surgery is needed.

This could suggest that old blood is present in the uterus, which may result in a woman experiencing irregular periods or pelvic pain. Irregular periods are a common outcome of the disease and it is always due to hormonal disorders. Hormonal therapy (hormone therapy) that your gynecologist can give you to treat PM is how you can get your periods under control and ease your discomfort.

Female | 37

Periods are often late even after using a postinor pill. This may cause a pregnancy test to give a faint positive result. This occurs as a result of the pill interfering with your cycle. If you are anxious or have abnormal symptoms, it is preferable to consult with a gynecologist.

I would suggest your friend does a pregnancy test to find out whether she is actually a pregnant or not. Beyond pregnancy, periods get delayed because of many reasons like stress, hormonal abnormalities, or other physical problems. For further confirmation vist to a gynecologist is recommended

I'm 18 year old female. I've missed my periods for 3months now and I experience abdominal pains even though I don't undergo menstruation I had a similar problem last year

Female | 18

You might be suffering from Polycystic Ovary Syndrome often mentioned as a possible cause of irregular or missing periods and pain in the lower abdomen area. One of the most common symptoms of PCOS is pain, as well as irregular periods. This is caused by the imbalance of estrogen and progesterone, some hormones that the ovaries produce. For the treatment of PCOS, engage in exercise, lose weight, and follow a healthy diet.

I had an ipill and had inetercourse within 12-15 hrs or taking the pill do I need to take another one

Female | 25

If you had an emergency contraceptive pill within 12-15 hours of intercourse, you are usually protected. It's common to experience changes in your period after taking the pill. Wait for your next period; if it's late or abnormal, do a pregnancy test. Also, using regular birth control methods is important to prevent pregnancy in the future.

I am 3 weeks pregnant and i have taken 12 tablets of misoprostol orally and inserted 2, yet nothing happened, i did not bleed neither did i feel any cramp.

Female | 29

It's important to understand that individual responses to misoprostol can vary. Some individuals may not experience immediate effects, and it's not unusual to have no bleeding or cramping at this stage. However, the lack of response you describe could indicate that the medication didn't work as intended. I strongly encourage you to consult a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation. They can provide necessary guidance and discuss further options to ensure your well-being.

Is taking mifepristone 10 mg effective as an emergency contraceptive pill? I took it hours after having unprotected sex.

Female | 23

Mifepristone is a medication that is typically not used in the 10 mg dose as an emergency contraceptive pill. It may be less beneficial than other methods such as emergency contraceptive pills containing levonorgestrel. Your preventive action is a good step. However, be aware that this may not be effective in preventing pregnancy. In case you experience any abnormal symptoms or if you suspect you are pregnant, it is recommended to visit a gynecologist.

Female | 21

Pain in the same place where you had ectopic pregnancy surgery can be a concern. It could be that scar tissue or adhesions from the surgery are the reason for this pain. These can happen when tissues stick together. It is important to contact a gynecologist to get a diagnosis of the pain and choose the best treatment options.

A yeast infection might be the issue. This might lead to the external genitalia itch and thick discharge. Yeast infections are the most common type and are usually not serious. You can use local antifungals like cream or pills to self-medicate. Prefer loose clothing without scented products in the intimate area. If you don't get better, see a gynecologist.
