You can't really test until a day or two before your period is due (at the earliest), and won't have symptoms until about that time either. (It takes that long for pregnancy hormone levels to reach detectable levels.)



If your period is irregular, you'd want to wait about 2 weeks from unprotected sex.How long after sex can you take a pregnancy test and get a accurate result?
It takes at least a week for symptoms to kick in (mine kicked in about a week before my period was due). As for testing, the absolute earliest you can test is 10 days after ovulation. But this is still very early and you will run the risk of getting a *false negative*. Your best bet is to wait until your period is due.



At this point, even if an egg was fertilized, you would not be feeling sick or dizzy from the pregnancy. It takes 6-12 days for a fertilized egg to implant into the uterus. You will not start to get any symptoms until this happens. Implantation is what gets the pregnancy hormones going and the hormones are what causes your body to react in such ways during pregnancy.
