Your easiest to get pregnant during ovulation.
During a typical 28-day cycle (from the exact day you start your period until the exact day you start your next period) a woman usually ovulates around day 14.
Ovulation is when an egg is released from an ovary and travels down into the uterus. Your temperature will very slightly increase around that time and you will secrete a little extra discharge to help sperm swim the to the egg easier.
Ovulation usually happens about mid-way through your cycle so if you had, say, a 20 day period then you might ovulate on day 10. If your period comes every 40 days then you might ovulate on day 20.
During a period most women are not ovulation and are not as fertile then.
The problem is that fertility is not the same in all women.
Take me for example.
I have an exact 28-day cycle. That being said, I should ovulate about day 14 just like "average" women.
According to all of the tests I've taken (you can buy the over-the-counter version at various stores like pharmacies or walmart but you need to take 6 months worth and that's well over $100 of testing) I ovulate on day 20.
Day 20 is much different than day 14 when you take into account:
Sperm live, typically, inside of a woman between 3 and 5 days. There has been live sperm found in women after 7 days though.
It takes only 1 sperm to fertilize your egg. A full ejaculation can contain as many as 100 million sperm at a time.
So, anyway, my peak fertile time is different than most women. I wouldn't have known at all if I hadn't of spent the money to see doctors and do some testing.
It isn't as common, but it happens.
For all we know, you ovulate when you're bleeding. We don't know that. You'd have to buy the tests or see you doctor for testing.
It's best to always use a condom, spermicidal lubricant, and birth control pills. Be as protected as possible all throughout your cycle and you probably won't wind-up with an accident. ]
It's definitely harder to get pregnant when you're on your period, but it's still possible. ]
It's harder, but not a lot harder. Always use protection, not only to prevent pregnancy, but to protect against STDs as well. ]
You are most likely to get pregnant while you are ovulating, in which is before your period. ]
now there is prolly a few people who will be mad at me for sayin this to you but its less possible because the egg for that month is bein released so there is not an egg at the top to fertilize
BUTTT BUTT BUTT
therre can be another egg on the other side so it is possible to get pregnant so u should still use condoms ]
Your best chances are to have sex around the time you ovulate. About 10-14 days before your period, I think. ]
I think its the same ]
