counting the first day as 1, from the 12th to the 18th day of your period you are more likely to get pregnant, even more on day 15

Everyone's cycle is different. There is a myth that woman ovulate 14 days after their period begins...but that is only an AVERAGE and each month can be different. The other thing is that sperm can live inside you for up to 5 days.... so if you are having a shortened cycle one month and you have sex right after your period and you ovulate earlier than day 14 than yes, there is a chance of getting pregnant. However, it will not be during your period. Many people think it’s possible because they do not completely understand how conception works. It might not happen right at the moment of intercourse since the sperm can live for days! If your cycle is short and you ovulate earlier than day 14 it can SEEM like conception takes place during your period...They only way to know is to know exactly when you ovulate. There are several ways to know and some are more effective than others. Some can only predict before ovulation happens and some can only predict that is has already happened. The absolute best info I can give you is to go read a book called Taking Charge of your fertility by Toni Weschler. It will help you understand your body and all the myths about it. It will help you time when you are ovulating and the best times to conceive – or not! . It's about knowing your body and knowing when you are fertile or not. You can pick and choose what you do with your info. Good luck and don't listen the all the myths! Even if you don't get into charting and everything....it will help you in so many ways!

I am not sure on what your cycle is like but the average womens cycle is 28 days so your most fertile days would be between the 11th to 14th day after the first day of your period, but like I said not everyone has the perfect cycle.
The doc told me this as I am ttc, eventhough my perios don't come like that there is ways you can find out by taking your temp every morning or buying an ovulation kit or you will start to feel very light pains in your stomach that means that you are ovulating. The pain is from your ovaries releasing the egg, but remember every woman is diff. Hope that I could have been some help to you.

It all has to do with when you ovulate. In a NORMAL 28 day cycle, you would ovulate around day 14 of your cycle, but women have been known to get pregnant ON their period or right after. You would have to know if you ovulated to know if there is a possibility of you getting pregnant. And keep in mind that sperm can live for days.

It's different for every woman. apparently I got pregnant just a few days after. We thought it was ok not to use a condom. Most people ovulate 14 days before their next period. So you'd have to base it on when you think you are to get your next one. Me? My pregnancy is showing up ahead of that schedule, so I guess it was when we didn't use a condom instead of it being a faulty one.

in the obgyn they'll tell you around the 12 to 16th day or something like that but it varies for different women. but its good to have the 12 -16th day thing in mind.
