    Can you get pregnant if you had unprotected sex the day before you got your period?
    I am 17 turning 18 in about two weeks and I had sex with my boyfriend unprotected and I was going to get Plan B but when I went the nurse told me that I shouldn't worry and I'm not pregnant because I had my period and I've been hearing all these things saying that the precum stays in you for five days but then other people are saying that it is very unlikely. My period was regular when I got it and my boyfriend didn't finish inside of me. I am having cramps but they are not in my lower stomach but all around which I've been having for a while. If anyone with experience could help that would be great. Thank you

    Yes, you can get pregnant even when you are having your period, before it, after it, and while on three forms of birth control.

    I am aware that anything is possible, but is it rare or unlikely is what I want to know

    No one knows at this point. Now you wait until you miss a period, then take an hpt with first morning's urine.

    Thank you I went to take a test and it came out negative. I am definitely going to be more responsible

    My boyfriend and I had unprotected sex and he didn't pull out. It is a week before my period or less. If I still have my period this month is there any chance that I could stilll be pregnant?

    First I am sorry the nurse was so careless in my opinion with her advice.

    The morning after pills gets less and less effective the longer you wait. After 72 hours it will really have no effect.

    How long as it been, you will have to wait almost 3 to 4 weeks after sex to do a pregnancy test, so it is far to early to test now, if we are still in the first few days after sex.

    Yes if you had sex the day before period and get pregnant is is possible to have this period.
    Rare is not a good word, less normal, But then if it is 1 in 100, you can be that one, just being higher odds does not mean it is not you.
