No! You can get pregnant at any time of the month because you can ovulate at any time during your monthly cycle.

YES, Yes, Yes! A lot of people think that if a woman has sex during her period, she can't get pregnant. Even though this is a common belief, you CAN get pregnant while you are bleeding. Sometimes ovulation can occur before the bleeding from your period has stopped, or it may occur within a few days after your period is over. In both cases, having sex before your period is finished can result in pregnancy. Having unprotected sex at any time, including when you're menstruating, is very risky.

Yes, there is always a possibility of getting pregnant, no matter where you are in your menstrual cycle, if you have unprotected sex. Chances could be less likely, however, when you are on your period. Most women, if they have a normal 28 day cycle, usually ovulate, or release an egg, 10-14 days from the first day of her period. This would be the time when a woman is most likely to get pregnant. This is not applicable if she does not have a regular cycle.

You can get pregnant any day of the month. There are certainly days where it's less likely to happen, and days where it's more likely to happen - it's the most likely to happen on the day that you ovulate. When is that day? It's hard to say - the widely held opinion is that that day is 14 days before your period is due to start, although a growing number of people in the medical profession will tell you that THAT isn't even for certain anymore.

Yes, it is possible to become pregnant from vaginal intercourse during menstruation. This is especially likely when the menstrual cycle is brief (e.g. 21-22 days). Because sperm can live up to seven days in the cervical mucus of a woman's vagina and ovulation can occur within a few days of the last day of a woman's period (in a short cycle), it is possible for fertilization to take place.

It's fairly unusual to be pregnant and still have a normal period. This is because the very thing that causes women to menstruate is the drop in progesterone that occurs only if fertilization does not happen. If a woman were pregnant, her progesterone levels would remain high, thus preventing her from having a period.

Pregnancy can occur from intercourse that takes place during a period. This is because sperm can live in the body for up to five days, and if a woman ovulates soon after her period, then conception could take place from intercourse that occurred during her period.

The more times you have PID, the more likely it is that you won't be able to have children. When you have PID, bacteria infect the tubes or cause inflammation of the tubes. This turns normal tissue into scar tissue, which can block your tubes and make it harder to get pregnant. Even having just a little scar tissue can keep you from getting pregnant.

Yes, it is possible. Pregnancy occurs when a sperm fertilizes an egg. An egg is released from the ovary (ovulation) once per month. The time an egg is released often changes from month to month. Once an egg is released, it survives in the female body for 24-48 hours. Sperm can survive in a woman's body for 3-5 days even up to 7days after intercourse. Month to month changes and the length of time an egg and sperm survive makes it difficult to determine the 'safe time' of the month.

Yes! You can get pregnant the first time you have sex because having sex for the first time is the same as having sex any other time. If you want to avoid becoming pregnant, you should use birth control, right from the first time you have sex.

You can’t get pregnant through oral sex, or through masturbation. But if you are fooling around with your partner and there is any genital contact, especially where fluid is involved, there is a chance that you can become pregnant. This can even happen if he touches his own semen and then touches your vagina with his hands. If you want to make sure that you don’t become pregnant, make sure you use a condom, or avoid having contact with his genitals and fluids.

Missing a period does not always mean a woman is pregnant. It is very dependent on when she ovulates (see above) as well as if she usually has a regular cycle. Missing a period could be related to stress, hormonal imbalances, excessive exercise, severe nutrition deficiencies, pregnancy, among other potential factors. If you feel you could potentially be pregnant (i.e. didn't use a birth control method, your usual method failed, etc.

The answer lies in the wording of the question. More precisely, it is essentially impossible for a woman to get pregnant during her period, but on rare occasions it is possible for a woman to get pregnant from intercourse during her period. Since sperm can live for five days, a couple could have sex near the end of the woman's period, and the sperm could then live long enough to fertilize an egg several days later, if the woman had a very early ovulation.

Pregnant women can have some light irregular bleeding during pregnancy, but it should not be like a “normal” period. Some women can confuse this for their period because often it can come right around the time she was expecting her normal period. The irregular bleeding or spotting that can occur during pregnancy is often a dark brown color or a light pinkish. It should not be enough bleeding to fill pads or tampons over a few days.

A woman can get pregnant any time of the month, even during her period. It’s not the most likely time, but it can happen.

Yes, there is a chance if a women has unprotected sex during her period that she might become pregnant. Women have been known to ovulate (release of an egg or ovum) at any time during their monthly cycle, including during their period, although this is unusual.

No, taking the pill correctly means that you don't get pregnant, regardless of whether you are having your period or not. Does the morning-after pill induce your period? I understood it did, but 7 days later my period has not come. The morning after pill does not induce your period. When the next period occurs depends on when in your cycle you took the morning-after pill. For most women, the next period occurs on time or is early.

Yes. Though women with regular cycles have times they are more and less likely to conceive, if she is having sex there is a possibility of become pregnant any time during the month. No. A Women's Pregnancy Center is not a medical facility, so we do not perform abortions. We do offer information on the different types of procedures available, the risks involved and can help determine how far along a woman is in her pregnancy so she will know which types are available to her.

Unfortunately, pregnancies can occur from unprotected sex at any point in a woman's cycle. Ovulation may vary each month and with each cycle therefore you can ovulate even on your period if you have a short cycle. Yes it is possible to get pregnant even when ejaculation doesn't occur in the vagina because sperm may be present in the pre-ejaculation fluid.

Yes, you can get pregnant from unprotected anal sex. What goes in the anus must come out. The distance between your anus and vaginal opening is relatively small. The lubrication that occurs in women when they are aroused works like flaggers at an airport for the sperm to find the egg. There is a chance that the sperm will enter the vagina after exiting the anus and the woman can indeed become pregnant. You should always use protection when engaging in any form of intercourse!

Sexual relationships and intimacy are important and fulfilling aspects of your life that should continue after ostomy surgery. Your attitude is a key factor in re-establishing sexual expression and intimacy. A period of adjustment after surgery is to be expected. Sexual function in women is usually not impaired, while sexual potency of men may sometimes be affected, usually only temporarily. Discuss any problems with your physician and/or ostomy nurse.

No, you can’t. Swallowing semen is the same as eating something that ends up in your digestive system—it can’t make you pregnant because your mouth doesn’t connect with your reproductive system. Remember though, that you can get a sexually transmitted disease through oral sex if your partner is infected, so you should use a condom or dental dam during oral sex.

Most women who want to have sex while they are pregnant should not have any problems and the baby should not be at risk. If your pregnancy is ?high risk? you should talk to your doctor about whether or not having sex is safe for you and your baby. It is important that you consider if you want to have sex as some pregnant women feel too tired or find sexual intercourse uncomfortable. You may need to experiment with different positions especially as your pregnancy progresses.

BabyCenter, we count the weeks of pregnancy starting from the first day of your last menstrual period (also called 'FDLMP') because that's the way most doctors do it these days. While the estimated day of conception is literally the day you first become pregnant, most people don't count pregnancy from that date because there's no way to know for sure which day you really did ovulate and conceive.
