How soon can I do a test to check if still pregnant after bleeding at 5 weeks?

It is generally recommended to wait at least one week after the bleeding episode before taking a pregnancy test to ensure accurate results. The hormone levels that indicate pregnancy (human chorionic gonadotropin or hCG) can take some time to build up again after a bleed, and testing too soon may result in a false negative.

Consult your healthcare provider to determine the best time for testing and discuss any symptoms or concerns you have related to the bleeding event. They can assess your specific situation and provide appropriate guidance and monitoring as needed.
