A person "usually" ovulates within the 2 weeks before their period starts, so its possible. But, everyone's body is different. You might just have to wait it out, and if you dont start in a few days, get a test.

What are the chances of getting pregnant if I have sex the day before my period?
In order to get pregnant, a sperm must meet and fertilize an egg, so any factors that affect this also affect your fertility. These include: the timing of ovulation, how long the egg lasts, whether there are any sperm present and how long sperm can live inside you.
Women who have regular periods can easily calculate when ovulation occurs. Ovulation almost always happens 14 days before you expect your period. For a woman who has 28 day cycles, that would be in the exact middle of the cycle, 14 days after the last period and 14 days before the next one. Women who have 30 day cycles can expect to ovulate 16 days after the last period, which is 14 days before the next one. Therefore, it is not possible to get pregnant on the day before you get your period, the last day of your cycle.
There is an important exception to this, however. Women who have irregular cycles cannot predict when will get their next period. Furthermore, many women who have irregular periods also have episodes of irregular bleeding that are not periods, even though they look like periods. Since you don't know when to expect your period, and you don't know if an episode of bleeding is actually your period, it is possible to get pregnant on what appears to be the day before your period.
take a pregancy test and good luck

no, I don't think so. You will conceive during ovulation, which normally occurs around 14 days prior to your period starting, during a typical (28 day) cycle. The "ovulation window" is usually 2-3 days long, I believe--although I'm not 100% on that part.

Anytime you have unprotected sex,there is the possibility of pregnancy.Yes,certain days of the month have a higher chance than others,but that doesn't mean you can't get pregnant on other days.You can even get pregnant on your period.The chances may be smaller,but they are not impossible.Use birth control if you don't want to get pregnant.

The week after isn't a competent time to get pregnant because there is no egg everywhere...it merely left with your era. Thats the least probable time to get pregnant. the most acceptable is the week earlier once you're ovulating, that's even as the egg is in/on it truly is thanks to the uterus. 5 days earlier your era may be even as you're ovulating.

Its always possible but not likely. Your body needs time to ovulate... and its not before your period. But obviously these things happen. Look it up online how your body works, its interesting and will help you out a little.

I have heard of pregnancies occuring at the start of the cycle. I am no doctor with no actual proof of this, but I would not rule it out.

Anytime you have unprotected sex you have a chance of pregnancy. However when you are ovulating you are at your highest risk.
