serious question

Okay i know this question has been asked a million times but is it true that there is only 1 or 2 days a month you can get pregnant or is there a chance you can get pregnant any day? I really have been wondering about this so if you guys could help that would be great

You can only get pg, in the few days surrounding ovulation.  If you have normal cy you should count back 14 days from the day af normally start and that is around what cd you would normally ovulate

im not sure if this is true, but i read a lot about it and the site i read stated that sperm can live inside you for up to 7 days

Canyou - if you're planning to use the information from this thread to plan when to have unprotected sex and still not get pregnant,  please don't!!

Ovulation charting and having sex RIGHT when women ovulate is done when there are fertility problems.  Young women and young guys who have no fertility problems have HUGE windows of fertility,  much longer than one or two days a month.  Really healthy sperm can live a long time,  and can also swim very fast to meet an egg that's nearly dead.  And young healthy women have unscarred tubes and can have body chemistry that's very hospitable to sperm.

If you were just asking out of curiousity,  then never mind.  ;D

Usually your good days are 12-16, 14 best, but you should do home ovulation test to find out exactly when you ovulate for a better time frame. My ovulation is on day 17, it depends on your cycle days.

Your egg is alive for 12 hours.  Sperm can live between 24 and 72 hours in your body.  So you can have intercourse the day before, ovulate the next day and get pregnant.
