How long does it take to detect pregnancy

Many newlyweds hope to have another member in their family. Couples who want children are very sensitive about whether the woman is pregnant, because they can easily lose their rationality when their nerves are tense. Some couples who don't have children may be more nervous about how long it will take to detect conception, because they don't understand this aspect and have no personal experience.

In fact, if a couple wants to have a child, they should first not let themselves be too nervous, because nervousness will lead to irrational judgment on some things. How long does it take to detect pregnancy? In fact, this is very simple. There are many ways to check that you can learn about.

The principle of the test is: when a mature woman becomes pregnant, during the process of the embryo developing into a fetus, the placental syncytiotrophoblast cells produce a large amount of human chorionic gonadotropin hCG. These hormones will be excreted into the urine through the blood circulation of pregnant women. Therefore, testing hCG in the urine of women of childbearing age after conception can determine whether they are pregnant quickly and accurately.

1. Early pregnancy test: Collect urine (first morning urine is preferred), insert the test strip, and observe the result within 5 minutes. Convenient, fast and accurate.

2. Basal body temperature measurement: Some women measure their body temperature every morning after waking up for contraception or because of infertility. The temperature at this time is called basal body temperature. Generally, the body temperature before ovulation is below 36.5 degrees. After ovulation, the body temperature rises by 0.3-0.5 degrees and lasts for 12-16 days, with an average of 14 days. If the high temperature curve of the basal body temperature lasts for more than 18 days, pregnancy can be diagnosed.

3. Type B ultrasound examination: As early as the 5th week of pregnancy, which is one week after the menstrual period, a round halo in the uterus can be shown on the Type B ultrasound screen, also known as the pregnancy ring. The dark area inside the ring is amniotic fluid, in which a rhythmic fetal heartbeat can also be seen. Using B-ultrasound to diagnose early pregnancy is the most accurate and reliable method.

Some reactions after pregnancy

1. Amenorrhea: A healthy woman of childbearing age with regular menstrual cycles has had sexual intercourse without taking effective contraceptive measures. If her menstruation does not come on time and is 10 days or more late, she is very likely pregnant. If menstruation has not stopped for 8 weeks, pregnancy is more likely.

2. Breast enlargement: From the 8th week of pregnancy, under the influence of increased estrogen and progesterone, the mammary alveoli and lobules proliferate and develop, causing the breasts to gradually enlarge. Pregnant women may experience breast tenderness and nipple pain, which is more obvious in first-time pregnant women. Once a lactating woman becomes pregnant again, her milk secretion will decrease significantly. A careful examination will also reveal that the nipples and surrounding areola become enlarged and darker in color, and nodules appear.

The above is a solution to the question of how long it takes to detect conception. I hope it can help more people in need. If a couple finds that they have not been able to conceive for a long time, they should go to a regular hospital for a series of examinations in time. Do not blindly take Chinese or Western medicine, but take the right medicine for the condition.
