But the most fertile days are the three days leading up to and including ovulation. Having sex during this time gives you the best chance of getting pregnant. By 12-24 hours after ovulation, a woman is no longer able to get pregnant during that menstrual cycle because the egg is no longer in the fallopian tube.

The chances of pregnancy are lowest during a person's period and in the days before and after the period. However, they may still become pregnant if they have ovulated early or late in their cycle, as sperm can survive in the body for several days.

It's possible to get pregnant at any time of the month. Once the egg has gone (usually within a day of ovulation) you cannot get pregnant until after your next menstrual cycle has started.

While your body is slowly shedding that uterine lining, the clock is ticking on ovulation — and your next egg shows up while you're still bleeding from the previous month's (non-fertilized) egg. So you're already fertile again — which means you can get pregnant on your period.

Even though it hasn't happened yet, there's a strong chance you could still get pregnant from unprotected sex. Within a monthly cycle there are only a handful of days where pregnancy can happen (when you're ovulating).

An egg needs to be fertilized within 12 to 24 hours after it's released for pregnancy to occur. So, while irregular ovulation makes it harder to predict your fertile time, it doesn't mean you won't get pregnant. It just may be more difficult to time your fertile window.

Technically, people can get pregnant at any time during their menstrual cycle, though it is much less likely during their period. A person is most likely to get pregnant in the middle of their menstrual cycle. This phase is called the fertile window.

Women who are not menstruating due to a certain condition (i.e. low body weight, breastfeeding, perimenopause, etc…) risk the chance of getting pregnant because ovulation could start again at any point. If you ovulate and do not start your period a couple of weeks later, you may want to take a pregnancy test.

You can only get pregnant during a narrow window of five to six days a month. When these fertile days actually occur depends on when you ovulate, or release an egg from your ovary. Ovulation usually occurs in the middle of your menstrual cycle — about two weeks before your period — but not everyone's cycle is regular.

Anovulation and Infertility When a couple is not experiencing infertility, the chances of conception are about 25% each month. However, even when ovulation happens normally, a couple is not guaranteed to conceive. When a person is anovulatory, they cannot get pregnant because there is no egg to be fertilized.

If you ovulate early – when you have short menstrual cycles – you may be able to get pregnant this time of the month. However, once you've finished your period you're moving into your fertility window, which means your chances of getting pregnant increase as you approach ovulation.

Can a girl get pregnant when she's just gotten over her period? Yes! Having unprotected sex at any time is risky and can result in pregnancy. Sometimes ovulation — the time when a girl is most likely to become pregnant — can happen within a few days of when your period ends.

Yes! Any time a girl has unprotected sex, she has the potential to become pregnant. Getting pregnant is related to ovulation — the time that a girl is most fertile and has the highest chance of getting pregnant. A girl with irregular periods still ovulates, just not on a regular, predictable schedule.

Our midwife Melissa says: Yes, it is possible to get pregnant without having a period. This is because we ovulate (release an egg) two weeks before we menstruate. When we ovulate, we are fertile, and it is at this time that we can fall pregnant.
