The short answer is no. Despite all of the claims out there, it isn't possible to have a period while you're pregnant. Rather, you might experience “spotting” during early pregnancy, which is usually light pink or dark brown in color.

Your ability to get pregnant is dependent on when you ovulate, and not directly associated with menstruation. Some women mistakenly believe that if they are still on their period, they aren't yet in the “fertile window.” (That's the time period of five to six days when it's possible to get pregnant.)

Can you take a pregnancy test while on your period? You can take a pregnancy test while bleeding or seemingly on your period, because any blood that mixes with your urine will not affect the results of the test. (However, keep in mind that typically a period is a reliable sign that you are not pregnant.)

A person is most likely to get pregnant if they have sexual intercourse in the 3 days before and up to the day of ovulation. Since a person with 28-day cycles typically does not ovulate until around a week after they stop bleeding, they cannot usually get pregnant during their period.

If you have sex during your period you can't get pregnant. You are fertile on the days leading up to and around the time of ovulation – due to the lifespan of sperm – and if you have a short cycle you could be ovulating just after your period.

Can I get pregnant just after my period has finished? Yes, although it's not very likely. If you have sex without using contraception, you can conceive (get pregnant) at any time during your menstrual cycle, even during or just after your period.

Once your body starts producing the pregnancy hormone human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG), your periods will stop. However, you may be pregnant and have light bleeding at about the time that your period would have been due. This type of bleeding in early pregnancy is surprisingly common.

Anytime you have unprotected sex, there's a chance of pregnancy — even during your period or right after your period ends. In fact, right after your period you may be even more likely to get pregnant from unprotected sex because you've just started a new menstrual cycle and you could start ovulating at any point.

It's more likely that you'll get pregnant from intercourse on the last day of your period if you have a shorter menstrual cycle. Your body ovulates — releases an egg from your ovaries — about 14 to 16 days before your period.

For women with a shorter cycle — the average is 28 to 30 days — there's still a possibility pregnancy could occur if you have sex during your period. For example, if you have sex toward the end of your period and you ovulate early, you can conceive.

It's not your most fertile time of the month, but it's still possible. Relying on your menstrual cycle as a means of birth control is definitely risky, because you can indeed get pregnant on your period. While it's safe to say that it's a less fertile time of the month, under some conditions, conception could occur.
