Female friends all know that after pregnancy, there will be no more menstrual periods, so if the day for the "menstrual period" to visit after sexual intercourse does not come, it is possible that they are already pregnant. But it's normal for menstruation to occur a few days earlier or later, so how many days can you try to get pregnant without having a period?
Women with regular menstrual cycles usually have one menstrual cycle between 28 and 30 days. If menstruation is delayed for more than 7 days, it may be related to pregnancy. It is recommended to first collect urine using a pregnancy test stick and then conduct a self-test. If pregnant, the secretion level of human chorionic gonadotropin in the body will increase, so urine will also contain such substances. Therefore, using a pregnancy test stick will show a positive reaction, indicating pregnancy.
However, as a self testing method, the pregnancy test stick also has a certain degree of error. Even if the test results are positive or weakly positive, or even negative, but the patient has stopped menstruating, it may be a false test. In the following weeks, a second retest can be conducted or a urine or blood test can be taken directly to the hospital to obtain an accurate result of pregnancy.
Women who have been preliminarily diagnosed with early pregnancy should also pay attention to going to the hospital again for prenatal check ups according to the doctor's prescribed gestational age, mainly to understand whether the embryo development is normal and rule out ectopic pregnancy. In addition, it is necessary to establish a pregnancy record for subsequent gestational age management and health check ups.
