Hi

Having unprotected penetrative sex during the fertility window and the appearance of given symptoms are suggestive of an early pregnancy.

You can do home pregnancy test on an early morning urine sample (as it contains concentrated beta hCG hormone). It should be performed a week after missed period; earlier, there are chances of false negative results.

Alternatively blood beta hCG test is very specific and sensitive test and gives reliable results even few days before missed period. An ultrasound scan will confirm the pregnancy.

Hope these answer your queries.
