Bit awkward to ask but here goes. We were together while I was still on my period and I always thought those days are safe. Now my mind is going in circles. anyone know how this actually works?
It is uncommon but possible, specially if your cycles are short. People think periods is a safe window but it isnt fully. Better to track properly or use protection rather than relying on this.
Chances are low during periods but not fully zero, because sperm can survive a few days and if you ovulate early it can happen. So if you arent planning, dont assume periods means safe. Use protection if you want to be sure.
Low chances but it can happen na, our bodies dont always follow the textbook. If you have a worry just take a test after the next missed period and talk to a doctor for proper guidance.
