Hey thanks for your faith in the health care Magic
I have gone through your question and I understood your problem.
As per what you said your partner have ejaculated inside you so you can get pregnant and about doing pregnancy test It depends on the pregnancy test that you use. All pregnancy tests measure the amount of human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG), the pregnancy hormone, in your body. Home pregnancy tests detect the presence of hCG in your urine.
Some home pregnancy tests are more sensitive than others. The more sensitive tests may be able to detect low levels of hCG as early as four days before your period is due, or seven days after conception.So wait for your periods if you dont get them on time then go for pregnancy test.Thank you.
