    When can I take a pregnancy test?
    If I had sex two days ago when is the earlyest that I can take a pregnancy test and if I take mediction does that rduce the risk of me getting pregnant beacause I take lithium busbar tryleptal and seriquel and also if I'm not ovulating can that reduce the risk of being pregnant becqause I had sex the day after I got off my period and I'm 15

    You need to wait until you miss a period.

    It won't reduce your chances of getting pregnant, but many of these meds can cause birth defects should you get pregnant.

    You are on some very serious medications for a 15 year old.

    The accuracy of an HPT increases greatly from the time you miss your period. In the frist week the accuracy is less tha 50%. By the end of the 2nd week it is over 90%

    No one should be engaging in sexual intercourse unless they are prepared to have a child.

    You can not take a home pregnancy test till a week to 10 days ( 10 days better) after you miss your next period ( if you do miss it)

    There is no way to test before you miss the period, and it be effective.

    These are serious medication, will not effect getting pregnant, but you need to discuss with your doctor that you are sexualy active
