It's possible to get pregnant at any time of the month. The day prior to ovulation, and the day of ovulation itself, being your two most fertile days. Once the egg has gone (usually within a day of ovulation) you cannot get pregnant until after your next menstrual cycle has started.

Even though it hasn't happened yet, there's a strong chance you could still get pregnant from unprotected sex. Within a monthly cycle there are only a handful of days where pregnancy can happen (when you're ovulating).

Your fertile window Conception is possible during the 'fertile window' – the five days leading up to, plus the day of ovulation. The chance of you becoming pregnant is greatest if you have sex during the two days leading up to or on the day of ovulation.

Remember, you can get pregnant right after your period, even if you're not yet ovulating. That's because sperm can live up to five days if it's trapped in fertile cervical mucus.

Once a day, every day during your 5-6 fertile days. You only have 5-6 fertile days each cycle, the 4-5 fertile days before and the day of ovulation. Having sex more than 5 days before the day of ovulation or having sexual intercourse the day after ovulation will not get you pregnant.

It's unlikely that you'll get pregnant, but not impossible. 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.

You can only get pregnant during a narrow window of five to six days a month. When these fertile days actually occur depends on when you ovulate, or release an egg from your ovary. Ovulation usually occurs in the middle of your menstrual cycle — about two weeks before your period — but not everyone's cycle is regular.

"It's highly unlikely that someone would ovulate during their period, but if you have sperm deposited the last day of your period and you happen to ovulate very early in your cycle — maybe four or five days after your period — the sperm could fertilize the egg, resulting in pregnancy."

But the most fertile days are the three days leading up to and including ovulation. Having sex during this time gives you the best chance of getting pregnant. By 12-24 hours after ovulation, a woman is no longer able to get pregnant during that menstrual cycle because the egg is no longer in the fallopian tube.

The best time to get pregnant You're most likely to get pregnant if you have sex within a day or so of ovulation (releasing an egg from the ovary). This is usually about 14 days after the first day of your last period, if your cycle is around 28 days long.

You can conceive even if you aren't ovulating. Although an egg isn't released during the immediate post-period phase, you can still get pregnant. This is because sperm can live up to five days in cervical mucus.

Yes — it's possible to get pregnant if you have unprotected sex during your period. However, it's less common for this to happen. Here's the deal: A woman is most likely to get pregnant from sex that happens just before and during ovulation (when an egg is released).

You can get pregnant if you have intercourse 5 days before ovulation and 1 day after ovulation. This is because a man's sperm can survive in the female birth canal for up to 5 days. But a woman cannot get pregnant if she is not ovulating. Ovulation is necessary for the sperm to be able to fertilize the egg.

It's possible to get pregnant at any time of the month. Once the egg has gone (usually within a day of ovulation) you cannot get pregnant until after your next menstrual cycle has started. Methods that tell you after you have ovulated are of no help if you are trying to conceive.

In a 24-day cycle, ovulation happens around day ten and the most fertile days are days seven to ten. If a woman has sex six or more days before she ovulates, the chance she will get pregnant is virtually zero. Then, the probability of pregnancy rises steadily.
