Some women ovulate just a week after their period. If you are having a less than 28 day cycle, like having your period every 3 wks, which can happen from time to time or with some women all the time, you could ovulate within a few days of your period. Sperm are said to live about four days, but have been known to sometimes survive up to SEVEN days inside a woman's body. Don't count on sex during a period to be safe, for pregancy and especially not for STD's. You are actually at increased risk for std transmission when you are on your period. Always use protection, especially barrier-method...CONDOMS! [ BitsandPieces's advice column | Ask BitsandPieces A Question ]
