period + pregnancy question

[justasking]

If you have unprotected sex but get your period 2 days later, is there still a chance of getting pregnant or not?

[ethandron]

yes there is. it's a slim chance, but a chance nevertheless.

[Ethel]

Highly unlikely - you are losing that month's egg in your menstruation, and next month's egg isn't ready to be fertilised.

[redcrx]

unlikely but theres a chance on any day of your cycle.

If you dont wish to be pregnant then use protection at all times

[loobie]

Guessing you should be ok but be sure to take a test in a couple of weeks to be certain.

Im with ethel and red on this, You normally are at risk of pregnancy if you have unprotected sex around ovulation, depending on how regular your cycle is, that is not to say it cant happen at other days in your cycle.

2 days before your period is probably a lot safer a time than earlier in the month, If you are worried take a test but its highly doubtful. There is a lot to said for contraception!!
