In other words, I don't think you have to worry too much. Chances are very low that you would get pregnant. The only way you could get pregnant from that would be if for some reason you ovulate much earlier than normalNormal saline flush this month. But if I were you, I would definitely use a condom or some other form of protection in the future, even if you're on your period...just in case :-)
It hasn't happened to me but it happened to my friend - Anytime you have unprotected sex, you run the risk of getting pregnant.
BTW: My friend was very religious and always complained about people having sex before marriage! Imagine our surprise when she announced she was pregnant to her boyfriend! Due to religious reasons she didn't believe in birth control and her, and her boyfriend who was in MED SCHOOL, assumed that having sex right before her period was "safe". Needless to say, she got married about 2 months later.
Hey i was just curious....i normally start my period on the the last thursday of each month, or around the 23rd but always on a thursday towards the end of the month, and i am on my last day of it today 11-27-2007. I am on birth control and have been for about a year (the pill) and my boyfriend came in me tonight for the first time...i took my pill right after and douched...what are my chances of being pregnant??
Well, if you're on the pill, chances are very low (I believe less than 1%). It shouldn't matter that you took the pill after you had sex, as long as you take it every day and about the same time. I don't think you have anything to worry about!
My period seemed to be really lite this month so me and my husband had sex for 3 nights in a role when i was on my period and got off in me every time even the last day of my period.my cycles are like every 35 days but my periods usually dont last but 4 days.is there a chance that i might be pregnant?
If your periods are only four days, and you have a 35 day cycle, I would say chances are very low. The luteal phase (from ovulation until your period is usually between 10 and 16 days (I think 17 at the very most), so for you, that means 35-17, which is cycle day 18. So the earliest you would ovulate, if you have your normal cycle, is 14 days after your period ends. And at the most, sperm can live five days, which takes us back to cycle day 9. So chances are very low that having intercourse on cycle day 1, 2, 3 or 4 would lead to pregnancy. UNLESS you for some reason ovulated much earlier this month.
However, you did say your period was much lighter than normal this month, and I'm not sure if you had unprotected sex last month. Some people do have light bleeding when they first get pregnant, although most don't. How much lighter was your period? Were you bleeding or just spotting?
My periods are only 3 days long. I get my cycle every 28 days. and my husband came inside me on the last day on my period. what are the chances of getting pregnant? Also this month I was very crampy the first day on my period.
My periods last for 6 days and are irregular. Last month I had sex with my boyfriend on the 6th day and he came inside of me. Is it possible that I could get pregnant? I have been feeling some cramping lately and im thinking that could be a sign that i am since i never feel cramping unless im having my period.
my period are very iregularany way and me n me boyfriend had sex on sunnday just gone...(easter) and he came in me..! a had the morning after pill and im jus worried could you still get peregnent after taking it.? cuz this wasnt planed..
i had my period on the 3th of june and again on the 29 of june.me andmy boyfriend and sex with out a condom and he did go inside of me.is there a chance i could get pregnant? thanks lisa
me and my boyfriend had sex on the last day of my period well i guess i stoped that morning i start on the 3 or 4 of the month could i still get pregnant i dont know my cycle i only have it for 3 or 4 days
Last I had my period was Oct 18-22, on the 22nd me and my bf had sex, and he came inside me. After that we have had sex.... using the withdrawal method every time.
Well, Oct 18th is a little late for me, since I usually start around the 13th and last til 17th. Now it is Nov 8th. I ovulate about 27 or so days.
Is there any chance, that I might be pregnant? Please help answer this question. :(
Of course you can. Some people ovulate twice in a month, some people skip a month of ovulation. One way to know is that, approaching ovulation, your discharge becomes heavier, clearer, and will actually stretch between your fingers, and your cervix will feel high, soft and open (this is where you will find your fertile discharge). Don't use this as birth control, because sperm can stay alive for up to 72 hours. This discharge is noticable for about 12-24 hours before ovulation.
i had unprotected sex a day or 2 after my period,but iv been on birth control for about 2 yrs now is it possible that i could be pregnant? i havent taken my birth control since then tho its been about a week since i last taken it, i just wanted to kno if i could be pregnant? cuz abvi you kno you stop taking it for the week you get your period and you jus take sugar pills
ok well. I'm twelve thirteen in february and I got. Raped. An um. I think he came in me. But I took the morning after pill but I think I liked it up. So. Is it possible for me to be pregnant? I want a kid so much but then I kinda don't.....
i usually have my period around the 23rd of each month and it only last 3 to 4 days. but this month i came on the 21st ( wed 01/2009) the 24th (sat) i was off. that night me and my boyfriend had sex. he came in me more then 2xs. we is trying to get pregnant. do you think that we're pregnant
I had my period on February 8 2008 my period always last for about 7 days. During my period me and my boyfriend had sex on the 5,6 & 7th day of my period.could I still get pregnant on the last day of my period and I had a few light (3 or4) drops of blood left?
Hi, I had sex with my husband in the time of ovulation, i have cleaned it after finishing sex. But I guess some of the liquid went inside. Will i get pregnancy with that little amnt of sperm. anybody can suggest??
yes you can be pregnant. theres no such thing as cleaning "it" after finishing sex. you can still get pregnant. theres something called precum and yes you can very much get pregnant being that you were ovulating...it takes one sperm to get pregnant!
my period is about every 28 days so if I start on the 4th one month I get it like the first or 30th the next time. I normally last about 6 days and on the last day its very lite. my boyfriend and I had sex it was protected but idk if we had a little accident what's the chance of me getting pregnant just in case. btw idk when I ovulate or anything
had* i ment....you said that...but you didnt say what you think happened to the condom. did it come off. did it break...that would be a help. did the condom have spermicide in it?
my period comes towards the 5th and 6th of each month. in june it came on the 6th and ended on the 10th. i had sex with my bf on the 12 and he ejaculated in me. Is it a very high possibility that i could be pregnant?
no because your cycle is longer than 28 days..being that you get your period at the same time each month. people with a 28 day cycle get their periods all different times
isnt ur next cycle calculated at the end of ur period. mY period usually last for 5 days. when i calculate mine i always get 27 or 28 days. see it started the 6 ended the 10th. calculating from the 11th to the 6th when my next period should start would make it 27 days.
and no if you had a 28 day cycle..and started your period on the 1st.....you would get your next period at or around the 28th...thats not the same time every month. your cycles a little longer than a 28 day cycle
Mine is 32 days. would that be ok or would i be considered to be irregular. i have another issue and i am not sure if u can help me understand whats wrong. I am 23 and i am unable to have a orgasm. My bf broke up with me because of that. I am thinking that maybe my harmones are too high.
what can i do about this. Will that affect me when i am ready to have a baby? How can i have a orgasm?
that does not make you irregular. having a period all over the place would make you irregular.
you having an orgasm has no effect at all on you being able to conceive when your ready
its hard for a lot of women to have an orgasm during sex...dont worry your not the only one. i have no idea on advice on that matter...thats really messed up if your boyfriend broke up with you because you dont have an orgasm during sex.
I an on the pill but i just started and haven't been on it for a year, my pills are now only four days off from matching my cycles which i don't know how long they are.... my boyfriend and i had sex on the last day of my period and the condom broke when he came.... Can i get pregnant? it has been a week since then and i am worried
ahh i want to ask... if i have my period and i have sex without protection and my boyfriend cums inside of me, ah is there a possibility that i can get pregnant? help
i had sex yesterday with my bf and instead of wearing a condom he put a rubber glove and i was on the last day of my period after i was done the glove disappeared i panicked if i am pregnant because my period started monday and right after i got home only a little blood came out i bathed and my period was totally gone after all it was the last day i was on it
ok my period comes every 28th day of every month... i have been with my boyfriend for about 6 and a half to 7 months now and i want to know y havent i got pregnant yet. we really what to have a baby but its hard for me to find out when im ovulating ... my period kinda last for about 6 to 5 days dipends if im running around.. .. but im still activly having sexy with my boyfriend on my period. Please Help Me? I What To Knows When I Can Get Pregnant?
okay on the last day of my period my bf came in about 4or5 times...but im not sure if im pergnant could i be?? im not throwing up or anything and its only been bout a week or two since then im jus always sleepy and get natious but not to the point where i would have to throw up...is that possible? my cycle is like from the 23-26/27..
im on the last day of my period or the second to last day of it, my boyfriend cummed a little bit in me but pulled out before all of it was in me, can i get pregnant? i got my period monday & its friday and i think its winding down
am i?
Okay, so i normally start my period at the last week of every month. They last about 5 days and on the 5th day, i had sex. It was protected with spermicidal condoms but the condom got stuck inside of me for about a second. I must have just had a lapse in my period that day cause the next day, i started with the "last day discharge". About how much of a chance is it that i can get pregnant?!
In other words, I don't think you have to worry too much. Chances are very low that you would get pregnant. The only way you could get pregnant from that would be if for some reason you ovulate much earlier than normal this month. But if I were you, I would definitely use a condom or some other form of protection in the future, even if you're on your period...just in case :-)
Take care!
btw.. spade, i take it thats happened to you or you know someone its happened too?

there is no such method called the withdrawl method that wont get you pregnant. its a way most girls get pregnant.
your chance of getting pregnant is HIGH because your having unprotected sex
what can i do about this. Will that affect me when i am ready to have a baby? How can i have a orgasm?
you having an orgasm has no effect at all on you being able to conceive when your ready
its hard for a lot of women to have an orgasm during sex...dont worry your not the only one. i have no idea on advice on that matter...thats really messed up if your boyfriend broke up with you because you dont have an orgasm during sex.

am i?
