When you are most fertile is the period in your cycle that you ovulate. In most women this time of the month is 7 days after your period or seven days before your period. The middle 14 days of your cycle. Note I said most women. Ovulation can occur at anytime and is different for each woman.

Ovulation is the time of the month when you produce and egg for fertilization. When this occurs there is a seven day window that sperm live and can fertilize the egg and you become pregnant.

If you want to find when your ovulating there are over the counter Ovulation Predictor Kits. These are urine based kits. Now these kits vary in sensitivity so you may want to talk to your pharmacist about which one is best. If you are over 14 no one will stop you from purchasing one.

Lecture time. Not knowing how old you are and it really doesn't matter. It is just plain dangerous to have unprotected sex with anyone no matter how well you may know him. STDS strike in the best of families. When you have unprotected sex with someone you are having sex with anyone else they have had unprotected sex in the past. You are also taking a chance on getting pregnant which is the basis of your question today.

Never have unprotected sex with anyone until you are in a long term committed relationship and using some other form of birth control.

Yes, but if it makes you feel any better, the first five days before and the first five days after your period are the times of month when you are least likely to get pregnant.

That being said... sperm can live in the vagina for up to 7 days, and you can technically get pregnant at any time. My advice? Talk to a doctor or pharmacist about the possibility of using Plan B - it's probably a little late for it, but who knows.

Don't worry too much. I know you must be really stressed and scared, but all you can do now is wait to see if you get your next period. Feel better!

the_unexpected answered Wednesday January 23 2013, 11:25 pm:
The previous answers are a bit of an exaggeration; while it is POSSIBLE to get pregnant at any point in your cycle from unprotected sex, you are MUCH less fertile during the week immediately before your period and during your period. However, you were very close to your peak fertility (1 week after your period ends) when you had unprotected sex, so you would be strongly advised to get a home pregnancy test (although keep in mind that false negatives can occur for 3 weeks following the unprotected sex) or see a doctor.

Yes.
If you have unprotected sex it doesn't matter when you have sex you can always get pregnant from it.

Hey honey, it doesn't matter if you're on your period, after your period, or before your period, at any time it is possible for you to get pregnant.
