Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

If your ovulation tentative date was 24th july and you had an unprotected sex on 25th, then the chances of getting pregnant are quite high.

For a urine pregnancy test to be positive, your periods should be overdue by at least 4-5 days. Doing a urine test on 27, 28 and 29 are futile.

For early diagnosis of pregnancy, you can go for blood HCG levels. A rising titre is seen at least seven days after having sex if you pregnancy occurs.

My advise would be to wait for the periods to be overdue and after that only try doing the urine tests for diagnosis.

I hope my answer and recommendations are adequate and helpful. Waiting for your further follow up queries if any.

Regards.

Hello.
Thanks for writing again.

For urine pregnancy test, you should at least wait till 10th august to know for sure.

If you want to have an early diagnosis, you can get your blood Hcg levels checked twice at a 48 hours interval.

A doubling of Hcg levels will suggest pregnancy.

Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Hello.

You still need to wait for at least 3-4 days for your periods. If the periods do not come then only go for a pregnancy test earliest on 9th August.

Earlier then that, there is no significance of negative pregnancy tests.

The symptoms that your having are non specific and do not suggest any diagnosis.

So, be patient and wait for periods to begin or repeat your urine test after few days.

Take care.
Regards.
