we are TTC and i always get confused about the timing part. like after that day, how many days till u can actually find out something? trying to understand the whole cycle thing better.
Take it slow, it doesnt happen the same day. The body needs about a week or more for everything to settle in. Wait for the missed period and then a home test, and if confused just see a gynac for a clear answer.
Best to wait at least till the day of your missed period to test, the hormone needs time to build up. Sex during fertile window plus a missed period is the real clue. My tracker app actually reminded me when to test which helped.
Roughly speaking, you would test after a missed period for accuracy, since implantation takes about a week to ten days. If your question is something more specific, a quick check with your gynac will give you the exact picture for your case.
It is not instant na. Sperm can wait a couple days for the egg, then it takes some days to implant. Thats why you wait till your period is missed to test. I tested early both times and got confused, learn from me.
I was so confused about this too. From what my doctor told me, conception isnt the same minute as sex, it takes a few days. So no point testing the next morning. Are you waiting to test? Hang in there, the wait is the hardest part.
If you mean how soon pregnancy happens after sex, my gynac explained that fertilisation can take up to a few days and then it takes around 6 to 10 days for implantation. So a test only shows positive after your missed period roughly. Testing too early gives wrong results.
