When Should I Take Pregnancy Test After Unprotected Sex?

I spotted blood around a week after unprotected sex and it's been a week from spotting now and still no sign of period coming. When can I test for pregnancy? Is it too early to detect right now? I've been having flu like symptoms and feeling sick first thing in mornings. I've been irregular with periods since stopping pill

Hello,
Welcome to HCM
As you are telling that your periods are irregular,we cant predict exactly the date of concieving in your case.
I would suggest you to take urine pregnancy test one week after your probable periods -if you miss it.
Best method of confirmation is ultrasound scan.
Hope you are happy with the answer.
Thank you
