    Any chance I could have conceived?
    Hi I started my period on Saturday but finished on Wednesday, does this mean I'm pregnant? Me and my partner are trying to conceive and we thought we might have a better chance if we had sex whilst having my period (disgusting as it sounds), so I was wondering if I could have conceived and what signs to look out for and how long to wait to do a test. Thank you

    Hi linzidry, welcome to AMHD,

    Starting a period on a Saturday, and finishing it on the next Wednesday is not unusual. Five days is pretty average.

    While it is possible to become pregnant from sex during a period, it is not the norm. You have better odds if you were to start having sex a couple of days after your period ends and continue every other day until the next period begins.

    How long have you been trying to become pregnant? It can take quite a few months for many couples as timing is only part of it.

    For many women, the first sign of pregnancy is a missed period, but some women do notice some possible signs earlier, such as increased need to urinate and more tired than normal.

    A few women will get accurate results on a pregnancy test about 8-10 dpo, but most will need to wait until a period is missed to have accurate results.

    We have been trying for a few weeks and my periods are always 7 says long never shorter. But I've been feeling weird getting stomach pains (not necessarily pains) but weird feelings in my stomach. And also I've not been hungry or wanting anything much to eat. Is there any possibility that I might be pregnant?
