In theory you're least fertile just before menstruation.

Take the average 28 day menstrual cycle:
A woman would ovulate around day 14 and produce fertile cervical mucus for up to a week beforehand, so the most fertile point would be between days 7-16 of the menstrual cycle. After ovulation there's no egg to fertilize, by the time you're due to menstruate any egg is long dead.


Unless you use Fertility Awareness Method you can't know when YOU are fertile or not, everyone has a different menstrual cycle and menstrual cycles can change all the time. You can't rely on an estimate or guessing fertile or infertile days based on previous cycles.

You ended your period yesterday when do you start ovulating?

In the classic "text-book" menstrual cycle ( a 28 day cycle), ovulation should occur in day 14. The first day of the menstrual cycle is the day you start menstruating. But it may vary from women to women. If you what to know how your menstrual cycle behaves, the first thing you have to do is to document the start and end days of at least three concecutive cycles. Once you have determined how many days it takes in average, (starting from day one of mestruation to day one of the next) you may estimate that ovulation should be occurring just in the middle of the cycle... so it may vary from day 12 to 16 of the cycle (that's how the rythm method of contraception develops: no sex in those days, or use protection). Just remember that the first day of the cycle is the day you start menstruating.

When in the menstrual cycle is fertilisation likely to occur?

I would think when your period is the lightest. People say that having sex during your cycle is harder to get pregnant. So, when your almost done with your period I would think or when its almost over. If you don't wanna have sex on your period whenever your off is good. I hope this helps, sorry if it doesn't. The odds of being fertile during your menstrual cycle is very unlikely. You could say there's a 95% chance you are not fertile. Keep in mind, you are the LEAST fertile a week prior to menstruation and a week after. However, it is possible to conceive during this time. It's just highly unlikely.

Do you get pregnant if you got sex at seven day of your menstruation?

If you have a normal average menstrual cycle of say 28 days then you ovulate around the middle of the menstrual cycle which wil be 14 days after the first day of your menstrual bleeding. keeping in mind that sperm can live for 4 days inside the woman's reproductive organs you will have to allow at least 4 days before the 14th day. in other words if you dont want to get pregnant definitely dont have unprotected sex on or after the 10th day after menstrual bleeding begins through to the 17Th day. This wil make you safer but there is no guarantee that something may be a it out of sync at times.

Can you get preg the same day you quit your period?

Yes, or at very least you could get pregnant as a result of sex on that day.Say during a typical 28 day cycle - a woman would likely ovulate on day 14 and have fertile cervical mucus from day 7, thus just after menstruation she may be fertile (but not actually conceive until she ovulates). If her cycle is shorter this increases likelihood of her falling pregnant.
