Hello,

Assuming that there are no infertility issues ,there are good chances of you getting pregnant, if you had unprotected sex around your ovulation period.

You can get a urine pregnancy test and sonography done after you miss your next expected period.

Hope this answers your question.

You can test a week after you miss the expected period and if needed repeat it after a week .Sonography can be done after say six weeks from your LMP.

my previous pregnancy i found out 6 days before period was due n was positive wat is percentage rate of chance of being pregnant and we had it in woman on top position wen opk was positive.... thanks for advice

Tests depend on the hormone levels.So I have mentioned more appropriate time to undertake tests when hormones are more likely to be in detectable range.Early tests can be falsely negative.So you can test before the period and if its negative then repeat test to be doubly sure.

It's difficult to say percentage in individual case, but in view of details there are high chances of getting pregnant in your case.

Though sex position are thought to contribute in conception, I think OPK positive is more important factor to be considered.

Hope this answers your question.
