The pregnancy test can be reliable 13 days after sexual intercourse

He pregnancy test It is a test that allows a woman to know if she is pregnant. It can be qualitative, when it simply indicates yes or no, or quantitative, if it gives the exact level of hormone. In both cases, the hormone analyzed is known as beta-hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin), released by the embryo since its implantation in the uterus. During the first trimester of pregnancy, the level of this hormone increases progressively. For this reason, it is recommended to carry out the test 15 days after the sexual act or conception to carry out the test, because if it is done before, the result may not be reliable.
