Answer 1

Yes. I got pregnant with my daughter while I was on my period. Always be careful and use protection!!

Answer 2

It's possible — but highly unlikely. You'd have to have a very short menstrual cycle, which is the time from the first day of one period to the first day of the next period, or a tendency to have long periods. This would bring the time of ovulation closer to the time when you would start bleeding.

Conception occurs when an egg and sperm meet in a fallopian tube. Sometime during the middle of your menstrual cycle, most likely between the 12th and 16th days, an egg reaches maturity in one of the two ovaries. The ovary releases the egg into the abdomen, where it's quickly sucked up by the tulip-shaped opening of the nearest fallopian tube.

An egg can survive in your fallopian tube for about 24 hours after it's released from the ovary. So the only way you can get pregnant is if sperm are present in your fallopian tube during this window of opportunity. If the egg isn't fertilized, it's shed along with your uterine lining during your period.

Typically, when you have your period, another egg is developing in preparation for release during the current cycle. But not every woman's cycle length is the same. Many women have a cycle that's about 28 days long, but some have cycles as short as 22 days long. If you have a shorter cycle, you could ovulate just a few days after you have your period. And considering that sperm can survive in your reproductive tract for up to three days, it's theoretically possible for the sperm to hang around until you ovulate again.

It's also possible to mistake breakthrough bleeding — spotting between your periods — for a regular period. So you may be bleeding right at the time of ovulation, when you're most fertile.

The time that it takes for an egg to develop, or mature, within the ovary can vary, and therefore, the actual day of ovulation can vary by several to many days. Some ovulation kits also base the "fertile time" on rising estrogen levels rather than the peak of luteinizing hormone, or LH, which is the actual trigger for egg release. In those situations the "fertile time" may seem to be longer.

Be safe, not sorry. Use protection always!

Answer 3

Chances are slim to none. You do not have an egg that is good at that time, however if you have a really short cycle and you have sex towards the end of your period, the sperm may live long enough to fertilize the next egg, but you would have to ovulate very early in your cycle. Of course I wouldn't count on it, I'd always use protection just in case. But if you were trying to get pregnant, that wouldn't be a good time to try.

Answer 4

YES!!!! You can get pregnant ANY time of the month, doesn't matter! Usually the most likely time to get pregnant is two weeks from the first day of your period. But remember, sperm can live in you for up to five days and things can change your ovulation from one month to another, such as stress and being sick.

Answer 5

I've heard that you can, but I always did that and she never got pregnant.

It's kind of like a gamble... maybe 90% you won't get pregnant....

My problem was, that I went past the amount of days to stop doing it and got her pregnant....

So tell him to pull out, or let him shoot in your butt.
