Can You Get Pregnant During Your Period?

Wondering if it's possible to get preggo on your period? In a word...Yes.

How does it happen?

• Sperm can live inside you for up to five days.

• That means if you ovulate early in your cycle, sperm and egg could meet.

• Or breakthrough bleeding during ovulation can be mistaken for your period. 

• (And that means you could be doing it when you're most fertile!)

Bottom Line:

• You could get pregnant at any time.

• So plan accordingly!
