Yes, if it is taken at the right time. Doctors usually perform a blood and or urination test to check for pregnancy. But if it is only a day or two after intercourse conception may not have occurred yet; conception usually occurs 5-7 days after intercourse.

Blood work cannot tell you how far along you are as the levels vary so much from pregnancy to pregnancy, go with the ultrasound.
"Pregnancy" would be one option.
Pregnancy can generally be detected in blood work as early as 7-10 days after conception. A blood test measures the presence of hCG hormone, produced by the developing placenta, which indicates pregnancy. It is more sensitive than a urine test and can detect pregnancy at an earlier stage.
No, pregnancy tests for humans do not work on cats. Veterinarians can determine if a cat is pregnant through physical exams, ultrasounds, or blood tests.

Pregnancy tests work by analysing the amount of pregnancy hormone present in your body. Generally, a urine pregnancy test is less accurate for two reasons: a) the hormone is being detected through urine, which can alter moreso than blood, depending on how much water you drink and whether or not you use first morning urine (first morning urine is better for pregnancy tests). b) the pregnancy test itself isn't as detailed and reliable as an analysed blood test. The moment the sperm fertilises the egg, the hormone pregnancy starts circulating in your blood. A blood pregnancy test ought to give clear results within a couple of days. Your GP may want to take more bloods a week or so afterwards to verify the result.
No, home pregnancy tests are designed for human use and do not work on cats. The most accurate way to determine if a cat is pregnant is through a veterinary exam, which may include blood tests, ultrasounds, or palpation.

10 days for blood test and 14 days for Home pregnancy test. Well it could vary but this is the most likely when pregnancy can be detected. After you missed your period the home pregnancy SHOULD work if you were pregnant. Good luck.
Then you should go in to see your doctor for them to do some blood work for you.
