At this time, the secretion of HCG is significantly increased. If tested in advance, there may be a weak positive reaction due to insufficient concentration in urine.

If you want the most accurate answer, you can go to the hospital for a urine test or do an ultrasound to get the most accurate answer. Couples who do not want a baby should take good contraceptive measures.
