Today I tested positive on a pregnancy test. Should I consult a doctor immediately or wait for one more week? My last menstrual period was 5 days ago, on 20th November.

If you tested positive on a pregnancy test and your period was due around 20 November, then you are approximately 4 to 5 weeks pregnant. It is safe to wait one more week before consulting a doctor unless you notice pain, spotting, or unusual symptoms. The first ultrasound is usually done at 6 to 7 weeks to confirm the heartbeat. In the meantime, start taking folic acid daily for babys development.

View allI am 26 years old. My last period was on April 26, and I did not get my period in May. I performed home pregnancy tests on June 3 and June 7, both of which were negative. I consulted a gynecologist, who prescribed Deviry 10 mg for 7 days and advised that if my period still does not occur, I should repeat a pregnancy test. Is there still a chance that I could be pregnant?

Mam I had unprotected sex on 2nd October. She got her periods on 8th October with normal periods. If I want to be fully 100 percent assured that she is not pregnant what to do and when to do? If I take a beta hcg test then when can I take it for the perfect and final result? Will one time test be fine or is a second time test required if the first time I get a negative result? Please answer and clear my doubt sir and mam.
