Hi,

You can do a pregnancy test from the first day of your missed period, if you have regular periods
If you’re not sure when your next period is due, you can do a pregnancy test 21 days (three weeks) after you last had unprotected sex.

To conceive, an egg needs to be released from your ovaries usually happens about 14 days after the first day of your last period, Seven days after you conceive, HCG might be noticeable in your urine in very low levels. The more days it passes the more sure is the result.

Feel free to make questions if anything unclear.
Regards
