Pregnancy... new at this.

So, I had sex today and I got off of my period two days ago. Is it possible for me to be pregnant? I am petrified. We used protection, but it slipped of at one point. We didn't attepmt to put it back on, and he went to wash off. But i'm beside myself with worry... can someone please clarify this for me?!

If you find out you aren't pregnant you really should look into getting on to some sort of birth control.

I am not sure... I didn't think I would get pregnant and did so for me it's really unknown. I also got pregnant once before right after my period and it ended up being a chemical pregnancy. So that one didn't last. But he actually went (tmi) in me both those times. So if he didn't actually do that with you then I doubt your pregnant.

But, how long does it take for one to start ovulating?

Well, how long does it tend to take until you start ovulating?

Not to scare u and I know this is gross on my part but the last day of my period is when I conceived. So it is medically possible. Now I'm 26 w 1 day. I doubt u are if he didn't go inside you.

Sperm live 3 days, so 3 days before u ovulate, dont do it

I guess that would work in a sense but you have to take in account for how long sperm can live inside of you.

No, ur not pregnant. Medically impossible if u just got off ur period. An egg can only live 24 hours, if not fertilized, you have ur period and shed the lining. In which time, you cannot product an egg untill you ovulate again. Its a 28 day cycle. Research "rythem method" and find out the week you ovulate, and never have sex that week id you

More than likely your not pregnant but i do agree with delainan you normally don't ovulate until 7-14 days after the first day of your period so i guess really it depends on how long your period lasted
