Can sex in mensural cycle leads to pregnancy?

Question

Bit confused and thoda embarrassed to ask. We were intimate during my periods and now im worried. Is pregnancy possible if it happens during the cycle itself? please someone clear this.

It can happen if ovulation happens early. Just like we track our hormonal levels regularly with doctors, please discuss your cycle tracking with your gynac.

Yes, it is definitely possible, especially if u have irregular cycles like I did. Please consult your doctor to understand your fertility windows properly and avoid risky assumptions.

Beta, body cycles can change anytime and our hormones are very sensitive. Don't rely on calculations, ask a doctor properly if u have doubts.

Haan na, it actually can happen because cycles can be very unpredictable. Gynac se clear cut baat kar lo, it's always better to be safe than sorry.

Honestly, sperm can live inside for up to 5 days, so if you have a short cycle, you can conceive. If you aren't planning yet, always use protection instead of taking chances.
