is it possible to know within four days of conception if you are pregnant or not??

Question

say you had unprotected sex on a saturday, and you knew by the thursday. is this realistic??

Answer 1

No.

Answer 2

Absolutley no. Under some extremely unlikely circumstances it would be possible, but not without a blood test done by a hospital, and even then I would expect it to come back as negative that early, implantation would be unliely before nine or ten days. Even if the period was due the day after (tests are generally accurate the first day of the missed period) then not only does thst make ovulation extremely unlikely to have occurred at the time of conception, but the human growth hormone that supports the pregnancy until the placenta takes over would be in minute amounts, and undetectable.This is 99.9% impossible. I think if someone has had sex with someone and they now profess to be pregnant four or five days later, they already were pregnant by several weeks or they are lying. A date scan done prior to 12 weeks gestation will pinpoint the pregnancys dates to the day, up until this point ALL normal foetus's grow at exactly the same rate, after this point however they do vary quite widely, and an accurate date of conception would be unreliable.

Answer 3

No, this isnt realistic. The majority of people ovulate around the 14th day of their pregnancy and then 14days later is around the time when your period should be due, it is around this time that you do a pregnancy test if your period is late, if you are pregnant you are classed as 4 weeks pregnant, even though you actually conceived 2 weeks before....you couldnt find out you was pregnant after 4 days as when the egg is fertilized, it has to travel down the fallopean tube then implant itself to the womb lining, and this can take 5-7 days, and then your body has to start producing hcg, the hormone produced in pregnancy, and this hormone will not be tested in a pregnancy test until there is sufficient hcg to be detected in a test, so realistically, the answer is no.
Hope this helps x

Answer 4

Well, most people would say "No", but I DID have an intuition about it with 5 out of my 6 pregnancies. I *suspected* within 2 or 3 days with most of them. Actually I should say 8 out of 9 pregnancies, because I had 3 miscarriages along the way, and I "knew" with those three within 2-3 days as well. I don't recall ever suspecting I was pregnant, only to find out that I was fooling myself.

For me, there is simply this enormous welling of energy focused in my pelvic region; the sensation is unmistakable from anything else I've ever experienced. I can feel my blood coursing through stronger than before, a sensation of fullness that is somehow different from pre-menstrual bloating. I can't describe it any other way, than sensing the enormous amount of energy that my body expends while creating this new being within me. I guess I can't say that I *knew* I was pregnant, but that I had strong reason to *suspect* it, and that my suspicions were generally correct.

YMMV.

Good luck to you! I hope it all turns out the way you're hoping!

Answer 5

No, it's not realistic or possible. You could have taken the morning after pill, but that must be done within 72 hours of unprotected sex. There is nothing you can do now but wait. You can check for pregnancy about 4 days before your next expected period. That's the soonest you will know.

Answer 6

No. Implantation happens about 10 days after conception. No pregnancy test, not even a blood test, can detect a pregnancy until the hormone HCG is released by the implanted embryo. So 10 days is the minimum, and then they would have to have a few blood tests run.

Answer 7

I think that everyone has an intuition about things. I knew that I was pregnant way before I even got a positive pregnancy test. But some people dont believe that you can. Just wait a few more weeks to find out. Good luck!


As far as getting a positive test...you cant!

Answer 8

Many women claim to know the instant they concieve. Your fertilized egg (if there is one) has just implanted. Of course that's assuming the sperm actually did the fertilizing on the day of intercourse which is not always the case. On about day 4 post fertilization, your body starts producing human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). This is what a home pregnancy test will test for. You won't be able to detect this hormone for at least another week. Best of luck to you.

Answer 9

No. Absolutely not. It takes a couple weeks to detect pregnancy. Generally the earliest you can find out is around 4 weeks after conception.

Also, just because you has sex on a Saturday doesn't mean you conceived on that day. Sperm can live for days and then fertilize with the egg....The sperm and egg don't automatically fertilize minutes after ejaculation.

Answer 10

No, no its not. In that amount of time the ovum is still traveling down the fallopian tube, and MAYBE just implanting into the uterus.

Generally you cant detect pregnancy until you're late or almost due for your period, as this is the time that your body produces the first high burst of hormones.

Answer 11

Its hard to tell. I got pregnant once and new the instant that it happened that I was prego. Then again that was my gut talking.

Go to the store and buy the First Response pregnancy test.
According to the advertisements you can know "before a missed period".

Good luck with whatever you are hoping for.
