We all know that in order to conceive successfully, male sperm and female egg need to combine to produce a fertilized egg, which then develops in the female uterus. And generally, the combination of fertilized eggs takes time, from conception to detection of pregnancy also takes time. Next, let's take a look at what happens when pregnancy is detected 45 days after sexual intercourse.
Pregnancy was detected 45 days after sexual intercourse
The late detection of pregnancy may be related to delayed ovulation and longer menstrual cycles. It is recommended to take folic acid tablets orally in early pregnancy to prevent fetal neurovascular malformations, avoid exposure to radiation, undergo regular prenatal check ups, and monitor fetal development.
Although pregnancy was only detected 45 days after sexual intercourse, it has no impact if there are no abnormalities detected during the examination. Strict prenatal check ups are necessary. In addition, Down syndrome screening should be performed between 14-19 weeks of pregnancy, four-dimensional ultrasound prenatal screening should be performed between 22-26 weeks of pregnancy, and amniocentesis and umbilical cord blood analysis should be performed between 16-20 weeks of pregnancy if necessary, in order to clarify the development of the baby in the uterus.
A few days after sexual intercourse, pregnancy can be detected
You can use early pregnancy test strips to check if you are pregnant 14 days after sexual intercourse, and usually take a blood test for HCG 8-10 days after sexual activity to determine if you are pregnant.
Because if sperm do not bind to warm sperm within 48 hours, they will die, and there is already weak acidity in the vagina. Generally, sperm can reach the female's fallopian tube within 24 hours after sexual intercourse and combine with the egg released by the female to form a fertilized egg. The fertilized egg, propelled by cilia inside the fallopian tubes, can reach the uterus in approximately 6-7 days; If the conditions are suitable, implantation can be done on the endometrium. So, it takes time from successful conception to detection of pregnancy.
So, even if pregnancy is detected 45 days after sexual intercourse, which may be relatively late, if the test results are normal, then the fetus is still fine. Pregnant mothers should pay attention to rest and ensure nutrition. In addition, if the pregnant woman is still in the early pregnancy stage 45 days after sexual intercourse, she can supplement a little folic acid appropriately.
