Welcome to HealthcareMagic,
As you had unprotected sex there is a chance that you may get pregnant. I recommend you to wait for your menstrual period. If you get your period then you are not pregnant. But if you miss your periods then do a urine pregnancy test.
Urine pregnancy test are simple, rapid and reliable pregnancy confirmation test. Take early morning, mid stream urine for testing. If the test line is same or darker than the control line it indicates pregnancy.
If it turns to be positive, you should contact your obstetrician for further check up. Hope that answers your question.
Regards, Dr.Imaad
