Hello, and I hope I can help you today.

If the first day of your last period was February 16th, and you have an average 28 day cycle, that means you ovulated around March 2nd. You certainly had intercourse plenty of times around that period, and both the ovulated egg and sperm can remain alive for up to 72 hours. So if you have a 28 day cycle normally,
you should be able to test for pregnancy by March 16th. If your cycle is longer, you may have to wait a few more days.

So I hope I answered your question adequately and best of luck conceiving!

Sincerely, Dr. Brown
