Pregnancy During Periods Is That Possible?
The first sign of pregnancy is when you miss your
periods. Having said that, it is indeed a fact
that, during your pregnancy, you cant be down
with your periods. However, there are some of you
who often ask this question pregnant during
periods is that possible?

Understand Your Ovulation Period or Menstrual
Cycle For Your Pregnancy
Pregnancy depends upon your ovulation
cycle. Going deeper, the average menstrual cycle
is 28 days. The time of the menstruation or
ovulation cycle is between the first day of your
period and the next. In fact, after your period
is over, ovulation takes place between 12 to 14
days. The fertile window lasts about seven days,
including the five days before and after
ovulation. In this case, eggs leave the ovary
during ovulation and travel down to the fallopian
tube, where sperms wait to fertilise them.
However, it is possible for the eggs to survive
for 24 hours after ovulation with the aim to meet
sperm and fertilise the eggs, thus giving you a
chance to become pregnant after your periods. The
egg eventually travels to the uterus making your
pregnant. That means if youre trying for a baby,
the best time to have sex is just before or
during ovulation. Now going back to the answer to
your main question.

Can You Get Pregnant During Periods?
2018 research has revealed, that you might get a
chance of getting pregnant between the 8th and
13th day of your menstrual cycle, but the chances
are less. However, putting it in this way, is not
that simple. There are 3 main factors involved
The Time of Ovulation
Menstrual cycle length and the timing of
ovulation can make prediction of your fertility
days to get pregnant difficult. In fact, some
studies have revealed that, having sexual contact
on the day before ovulation is as likely to
result in a pregnancy as having it randomly
throughout the menstrual cycle.

The Sperms Role
On top of that, sperms can live for 3 to 5 days
inside your body. That means, if you have sexual
activity 5 days before your ovulation, there is a
chance of the sperm living there when you ovulate
and getting ready to fertilise the eggs.
Therefore, you have a slight chance of becoming
pregnant during or at the beginning of your
period.
The Length of Your Menstrual Cycle
Menstrual cycles lasting 21-35 days are still
considered normal. A shorter menstrual cycle
may lead to ovulation closer to the start of your
periods.

Can You Get Pregnant Before or After Your Period?

• As already mentioned earlier, your fertility
  window usually takes place in the middle of your
  ovulation cycle. In fact, the fertility window
  lasts a few days before ovulation and ends a day
  after. If you have a menstrual cycle that is
  shorter than maybe 28 days, your chances of
  getting pregnant before your periods are high.
• Well! You are more likely to get pregnant after
  your periods are over. That is because 7 days
  after your sexual activity, the sperms can
  fertilise your eggs. Moreover, there are two
  factors working to boost your chances of getting
  pregnant after your periods.
• A short menstrual cycle
• A long period
• If you perform a sexual activity, with a short
  ovulation cycle and ovulate early for the egg to
  connect with the sperms, youre likely to be
  fertile on days right after your periods.

Can You Get Periods During Pregnancy?
Just when youre expecting to be down with your
periods, roughly around the same time, there is a
possibility that the fertilised egg gets
implanted in the uterus. In fact, you can expect
light period-like bleeding or spotting during
pregnancy and white vaginal discharge, as a
result of the thickening of the vaginal walls.

• Many of you might mistake this for regular
  periods, but this is actually the periods of the
  first month of your pregnancy. The reasons can be
  manifold
• Hormonal changes
• When the fertilised egg gets incorrectly
  implanted
• Changes in the cervix
• Miscarriage
• Placental complications (like placenta previa,
  and abruption)
• Infection or molar pregnancy

The presence of bleeding isnt always indicative
of a medical emergency. Well, if youre bleeding
at any point of time during your pregnancy, seek
medical advice.
