I used to take birth control pills, I recently got off them a few months ago now my periods are very irregular. I've only have had one since I've been off of them and that was on Jan.6-10th. So how am I suppose to know when I am ovulating? My fiance & I don't use condoms and today we had unprotected sex again and he ejaculated inside of me, so can I be pregnant although I don't kno when I'm ovulating or if I've already ovulated this month? I read online some women can get pregnant a day after there ovulation has stopped, is this true? Please help me. :(

Rena-Chan answered Monday January 23 2012, 9:18 am: Sperm lives up to 5 days in the womb, as well as after your egg has been released, it lives for 5 days before it is no longer available for fertilization. The best thing to do to figure out your ovulation is getting ovulation kits, they detect ovulation. You can buy them at any pharmacy. CVS, Walgreens, Even wal-mart carries them, if you're short on cash, then try checking your local dollar store. Some dollar stores carry ovulation kits as well as pregnancy tests. Also, remember that after an egg is fertilized, it can take up to 2 weeks for any symptoms to occur, and with pregnancy tests, you RARELY ever get a false positive. (only a 2% chance of getting a false positive reading) Typically when a woman is ovulating, she will spot, but this is not always the case. If I were you, I would look up all the information needed to help with the matter. There are multiple sites that have a lot of information, also you should try speaking with your doctor. Speaking with your doctor is a much better idea, this way, should you have any questions, you can address him/her with them and get better information, as well as better ideas.
Here are some sites to start you on your information gathering.
