Could I end up pregnant if I have sex one day before my period?

Asked Jun 15, 2010, 05:34 PM — 6 Answers
My name is Ashley and me and my boyfriend had sex 3 times in one night without anything to keep us safe but I thought it would be ok cause I knew my period was coming in 4 to 5 days so I thought we wouldn't get prego. Then I started my period the next day it was early but only by 3 to 4 days, 21 days from my last period, so I didn't think nothing of it until I was talking to my sister and she said it was still a chance I could get prego and I said no way cause the egg was already dead and my period is the same I guess. I didn't know if I was all the way right so I thought to ask someone who would know more then me. So am I safe or should I be buying a test in some days?

You are probably safe, your period was pretty much normal, and the sex was right before you were due to start, but there is no 100% safe time to avoid pregnancy....just some that are safer than others.

Generally you will likely ovulate midway through a cycle....about 12-16 days before a period is due, but not everyone follows this average. Remember, to have an average you will have some who naturally ovulate sooner and some later. Though not common, you can also ovulate at an off time from your norm once in awhile and just a few days can make all the difference.

Best to use some type of protection every time to decrease the odds even more. Why take the chance regarding one of the biggest decisions of your life?

If it is a pill meant for emergency birth control, yes, it may help. If it is a regular birth control pill, not really. The types, and amount, of hormone is usually different in each. Emergency birth control, such as Plan b, is at a higher dose than a regular pill.

If you have sex, pregnancy will be possible, but if what you are having is like your normal period, it's not likely that you are pregnant. You can't have an actual period and be pregnant at the same time.

I had sex with my boyfriend in an attempt to get pregnant but i'm worried that since I started bleeding a few hours later that I got my period, can I still become pregnant since the bleeding stopped the next day?
