Can you please help?

Hey ladies, hope everyone is doing well and getting good news!!!

So as many of you know, my DH works away in India and we dont have many windows of opportunity for ttc...
I have decided not to go to Brazil, things were getting to complicated. So I will be going to Singapore with him in March, its nice because he will get home on the 11th, my birthday and we will leave ont he 20th!
My question is, if everything works out and I O around the 29th of March what is the chance of conceiving if our last chance to bed together will be on the 27th?
Thanks

Oh also, is it possible to ovulate even if you have not had a period? On the net all I have found is 50-50, some ppl say no, some ppl say yes....?

Every woman has a 25% chance of conceiving each cycle. Sperm can live up to 5 days, sometimes even a week.

Yes you can ovulate without having had a period. The reason being that a period does not determine when you ovulate whatsoever. Ovulation occurs because of hormonal fluctutations in your body that are unrelated to a period. In fact, your ovulation will determine when your next period arrives (always within about 14 days of ovulation you will have a period unless pregnant).

Don't read into people's opinions but what medical doctors and websites tell you. Here's a great article by one of MedHelp's contributing doctors that explains the hormonal shifts that take place in order for you to ovulate:
