How Early Can Pregnancy Be Detected After Unprotected Intercourse?

I just recently had unprotected sex with my boyfriend a week ago. He didn't ejaculate in me but we still continued having sex after his first ejaculation so i'm worried that I could be pregnant and I just don't know it. How soon should I be able to take a test and get a clear result? Also, should I be experiencing any symptoms at the moment?

Hello dear
I understand your concern
If you did sex during fertile phase of period then there may be chance of pregnancy.
To detect early pregnancy, Blood HCG test is the most accurate test to confirm pregnancy.
It will give positive result even 10-12 days after unprotected sex.
Urine pregnancy test will detect pregnancy once your period will delayed by more than 7 days.
So wait for period if period will delay by more than 7 days then think about pregnancy and undergo urine pregnancy test.
Meanwhile avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water and do regular exercise
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
