No, pregnancy does not show after 7 days. Pregnancy typically isn't detectable this early. Implantation, when the embryo attaches to the uterine wall, usually occurs 6-12 days after ovulation. Most home pregnancy tests can detect pregnancy about 10-14 days after conception. For more accurate results, it's best to wait until after a missed period to take a pregnancy test.
