Can you be pregnant if you get your period for only 5 days?

Answer 1

Certainly. I will always say that unless you are abstinent, there is always a possibility of being pregnant. Yes, you can get pregnant. Be on the lookout for pregnancy symptoms just in case. Your symptoms of pregnancy will usually appear anywhere from the first week of your expected period to 1-2 weeks after your first week of expected period. Your first signs of pregnancy most commonly include missed period, tender/swollen breasts, change in color of the breasts, fatigue, nausea/vomiting, increased sense of smell, and weight gain. Common myths suggest that you cannot get pregnant while on your period, that is false information as well; although it is less likely it is still possible. You can also get pregnant from pre-ejaculate as you might not have thought because pre-ejaculate still contains sperm/semen. The pullout or withdraw method can still have sperm or semen that can come in contact with the vagina and get a female pregnant.
