    Ovulation-trying to get pregnant
    This is a true or false question.

    _______ you cannot get pregnant if you have relationship after ovulation or in the days

    That you do not ovulate.


    IF THE ANSWER IS FALSE does it mean that you can get pregnant in those times; is it just harder to get pregnant then??

    There is a little bit more to it than just "true" or "false".

    Of course you cannot get pregnant if you do not ovulate... no egg=no baby.

    It is harder to pinpoint when you ovulate. And you can't expect it to be the same time every month.

    In a fertile environment sperm can live up to 5 days... so lets say you have sex on a Monday (thinking you are safe because you aren't ovulating)... well then you ovulate on Friday... sperm can still be alive and fertilize that egg.
