Hello,

you can use either a pregnancy test kit which detects beta-chorionic-gonadotropin (beta hCG) in your urine or a blood test for beta hCG which is much more sensitive. If the urine test is negative then pregnancy would be very unlikly but it wouldn't be 100% excluded. But if the blood test is negative then the chance that you're pregnant would be zero.

You can contact me again, if you'd like more information or clarifications.

Kind Regards!
