The answer is yes you can but it seems to be rare. Although, it may seem like the most unlikely time to get pregnant sperm are desighned to find and egg and fertilize it. Just because your menstrating doesnt mean the spern wont find an egg. sperm linger for many days.

This rarely happens, but yes- it is possible. If, for example, you release 2 eggs- the first not being fertilized would trigger your period, but if the second was then released- it could still be floating around in there, even though you are having your period. So, it can happen. Implantation of a fertilized egg during your period is also difficult, as the blood rich lining which you shed during your period is the stuff that the fertilized egg implants in. Again, usually does not happen, but is possible. It is best to use birth control every time you have intercourse, no matter what time of the month it is.

You sure can!
Besides misleading vaginal bleeding, the ability of sperms to survive inside a woman's body is also another reason why it is possible for a woman to get pregnant during her periods. Sperms can survive for an average of two or three days, inside a woman's body under normal conditions. If they receive ideal circumstances, however, they may remain viable for up to five days. So if sperm are deposited early, such as during a woman's period, they can hang around a few days, waiting until conditions are right for conception. A woman is most likely to become pregnant if sexual intercourse occurs just before or just after ovulation.

Most people would say highly unlikely or even NO that you cannot become pregnant while on your period but i can tell you that is so NOT TRUE because i got pregnant while i was on my period but i sadly miscarried.
Do not believe this myth. It is not true cause you can get pregnant cause i know i sure did.

It has happened, but it is not the way to get pregnant.
Basically, if you have sex and don't want a baby you need to use birth control every single time no matter what. Condoms, should not be seen as birth control as much as protection from invisible diseases.
That means, if you are young and stupid, don't have sex or, take the pill every single day at exactly the same time and insist that your partner use condoms every single time.

yes, you can still get pregnant during your period, but you can't have your period while your pregnant.

You have less of a chance of becoming pregnant during your period, but there is always that chance.

you can get pregnant at any time, you never know when your ovulation could get messed up and cause you to be fertile during your period.

Very unlikely but yes it is possible, if you have an "off" ovulation time you could very well ovulate during your period. Again very unlikely but anything is possible.
