Hi

You need to take an urine pregnancy test in case you have missed your periods by 10 days or one to two weeks after intercourse.

Only doing the test can determine whether you are pregnant or the spotting is the beginning of your menstrual cycle.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
