can u get pregnant while on your period?

Question

it seems rediculous that a 25 year old should be asking such a question, but im now a week late. i started getting cramps but i wasnt actually bleeding, and then...... and now im late, is it a possiblity that i could be?

Answer 1

nope, just 2 weeks before your period

Answer 2

I am 30 years old and fell pregnant last year while on the pill, and now have a beautiful 6 month old son, so you are not silly for asking this question. I understand that although it is rare, you can fall pregnant while you are on your period. My advise to you would be do a pregnancy test, it's the only way that you will know for sure, then once you have the answer you can think about the pregnancy (if you are pregnant) seriously and make any decisions you need to, rather than sitting there wondering if you are pregnant and what to do. All the best.

Answer 3

um, im going to go with rediculous, go to a library, and read something. I mean really, and all you others, some ssay yes, some say no, some arent sure, no wonder we have such high teenage pregnancy rates. Dear, if you dont know about your body, and all its intricasies, you shouldnt be having sex, even at 25, go and get yourself checked over, for diseases and such, im guessing you havent done that.....

The only reason i am not giving you a direct answer, is because anyone, who would base their possible pregnancy on something said on answers.......... oh i want to swear so much now...

Answer 4

highly unlikely but possible
would be good to know on which day of your period you had the intercourse
I once met a woman who got preggers on the day after her period. She was in her early 40s and with 2 kids. Sperm has a very long "shelf" life. Doctors used to think it's 72 hrs but now many hynaecologists admit it may be more
and then your body is not a watch and you may have had an early ovulation
Contact your doc asap and have a blood test on hcg

Answer 5

Yes. You can. It is very, very unlikely and also very unusual, but it can happen.

It's more likely you have infection or something else rather unpleasant upsetting you, or even something physically blocking the exit from your cervix (and just being stressed can delay a period) but do go get a pregnancy test done to be sure.

This web page explains it (don't be put off by the title - it's just a nice clear description within!):

Answer 6

Yes

Answer 7

It is rare but it is possible, some women ovulate at a different time in there cycle than others and sperm can live a few days in your fallopian tubes. Take a test and set your mind at rest xx

Answer 8

Of course you can. It is considered to be less likely in terms of trying to concieve, but you can get pregnant at any time of the month and it is different for every individual. You may be very fertile.

Good luck anyway, whatever the outcome.

Answer 9

Well' I am no expert but my best friend told me that she got pregnant in the middle of her period and she thought it wasent possiable, I never asked the doctor because it keeps slipping my mind, plus I am 5 months Pregnant But my time of Conception was very near the time of my period. That is your most fertile time.

Answer 10

It's possible to get pregnant during your period, but it isn't as likely as it would be during the middle of your cycle once the egg is in the correct place.

Answer 11

It's highly unlikely, but not 100% impossible, especially if you have unprotected sex late in your period, and you normally have short cycles. However, you need to take a test to make sure.
