Q

Can you have sex and take a pregnancy test a couple days after or do you have to wait for the day you miss your period to know if you're pregnant or not?

A

The b-HCG hormone that is unique to pregnancy and is detected in home pregnancy tests only reaches detectable levels about the time that the next menstrual cycle is due to begin, therefore you need to wait until this time.
