You can only conceive on two days each cycle. You are at your most fertile the day you ovulate and the day before. However, because sperm can survive for up to five days, having sex on the days leading up to ovulation can increase your chances of getting pregnant.

It's unlikely that you'll get pregnant, but not impossible. You are fertile on the days leading up to and around the time of ovulation – due to the lifespan of sperm – and if you have a short cycle you could be ovulating just after your period.

If you're trying to get pregnant, light spotting during ovulation may be a sign that you can conceive around this time of your cycle. Keep in mind that an egg is only available for fertilization for about 12–24 hours during ovulation.

When am I most fertile during my cycle? You're most fertile within a day or two either side of an egg being released from your ovaries (ovulation). But you can get pregnant if you have sex at any point during the week before ovulation, as sperm can live inside a woman's body for up to 7 days.

Having sex as close as possible to the time of ovulation increases the chance of pregnancy. If a woman has sex six or more days before she ovulates, the chance she will get pregnant is virtually zero. If she has sex five days before she ovulates, her probability of pregnancy is about 10 percent.

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.

That said, ovulation doesn't always happen like clockwork. It can occur anywhere from four days before to four days after the midpoint of your menstrual cycle. If you ovulate later in your cycle or start your period sooner than usual, you could become pregnant if you have sex in the days leading up to your period.

Some women also track ovulation as a way to prevent pregnancy. If you're trying to get pregnant, light spotting during ovulation may be a sign that you can conceive around this time of your cycle. Keep in mind that an egg is only available for fertilization for about 12–24 hours during ovulation.

Facts about timing Pregnancy is technically only possible if you have sex during the five days before ovulation or on the day of ovulation. But the most fertile days are the three days leading up to and including ovulation.

The fact is, there's still only one way to get pregnant -- by a sperm fertilizing the woman's egg, which can happen for only about 12 to 24 hours after ovulation -- approximately 14 days before the end of a woman's monthly cycle. Ovulation sometimes can be harder to predict if a woman's cycles are irregular.

Sex as early as 5 days before ovulation can lead to conception, but the chances are highest with sex the day immediately before the egg is released. Some women on a 28-day cycle ovulate around day 14 after the start of their last period.

Can I get pregnant at any time during my cycle? Yes, but it's unlikely you'll get pregnant just before or just after your period. You are most fertile when you ovulate, so this is when you're most likely to get pregnant.

Sex during ovulation To maximize your chances of getting pregnant, you should be having sex as often as you like during your fertile window, which is the 4-5 days approaching ovulation and the 1 day following it.

Most women ovulate anywhere between Day 11 – Day 21 of their cycle, counting from the first day of their last period. This is your “fertile time” and when sexual intercourse has the best chance of producing pregnancy. Ovulation can occur at any point during this window and may occur on a different day each month.

Once a day, every day during your 5-6 fertile days. You only have 5-6 fertile days each cycle, the 4-5 fertile days before and the day of ovulation. Having sex more than 5 days before the day of ovulation or having sexual intercourse the day after ovulation will not get you pregnant.
