When to do a pregnancy test?
The time between 1 to 2 weeks is the best time for menstrual periods to check for pregnancy. After mating, when the sperm combines with the egg, the fertilized egg is implanted in the uterus. After this, the HCG hormone starts to form in the woman's body. This hormone can be found in a woman's urine about 7 to 14 days after fertilization. So after the time of menstruation, if menstruation does not come for a week, then pregnancy should be checked.
