Chances of conception?
Hi,
We had a miscarriage last year and are trying again.
Last day if my period was April 27th, had unprotected sex May 7, 8, 9, and 10th. Are the chances of conception good?
Thanks

yep...sounds like to me you ovulated on the 11th and sperm can live for 5 days so according to your BD'ing you have a GOOD chance of conceiving this month. But only 10% of pregnancies show a positive HPT at 10dpo, which is why they suggest that you wait until your period is due, which is 14dpo. The 'early' tests are supposed to be good. Look for one that is sensitive to 10mlU/hCG (most tests are only sensitive once levels reach 25mlU/hCG). Even then it can take another week or so for the hCG to be measurable in your urine. Home pregnancy tests are around 97% accurate when done correctly! Or for a fast and more accurate answer you can run and get a blood test they can be taken 7-12 days from possible conception depending where you go they'll run you anywhere from $25.00 to $40.00.
Hope this helps!
Good luck and plenty of sticky baby dust!
