Re: how long after unprotected sex until you can take a test?

  • All doctors are not created equal. For example an ER doctor hasn't been on an OB floor since their rotation in med school and knows JACK about OB. There are specialties for a reason. You can't know the ins and outs of every single one. That's like the receptionist at the hospital being like "oh I work in the hospital. Here is your diagnosis ___" Common sense is a beautiful thing
    I'm no doctor, but I stayed at a holiday inn express last night.  lol
    CFriesen4778 Please stop giving us RNs a bad name. Only speak if you actually know what you  are talking about.  

    EmilyOG Seriously your husband is a Dr. I hope he is a proctologist so he can pull your head out of your ass.  All Drs are not created equal unless he is a RE you should disregard everything he "knows" about fertility.

    As a registered nurse I recommend that you wait until your miss your period. Because if you take a pregnancy test before you have missed your period it will come out negative. Same goes for blood test and urine samples.

    Wrong, wrong, so much wrong.
    ETA: Which has been covered but deserved to be said again.

  • This is one of the first boards I've read and the level of hate and nastiness towards one another is appalling. When are we going to stop tearing each other down and start building each other up with compassion and understanding? It does a woman no good to be an anonymous bully on a Bump blog
    Please go look up the word bully. Report back stat.

    Wasn't sure how long you need to wait to take a pregnancy test after.

    30-60 seconds.
