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.
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.
I hope that helped some. I've never gotten pregnant while having sex on my period, but I suppose I've just been lucky!

Pregnancy is tied to the time of ovulation, not the timing of your flow, so YES it is possible if your ovulations are close together.

Yes, you can. But it is not likely. That said, if you don't want to be a parent, ALWAYS use protection. Better safe than sorry.

anytime you have sex you are putting yourself at risk for getting pregnant....if you do not want pregnancy please practice safe sex or don't do it at all

Highly unlikely, but not impossible.
