Can you get pregnant if you have sex on the first day after your period?

Girls have their periods every month and also have their first sexual experience. Often menstruation and sexual life are contradictory. Medically, it is not recommended for men and women to have sexual relations during menstruation because it is easy to get infected and is not good for women's health. So can you get pregnant if you have sex on the first day after your period? This is a question that many people are curious about. Some people also believe that having sex on the first day after menstruation will lead to pregnancy. Is this idea correct? Let’s take a look at it below.

The method of calculating ovulation according to the menstrual cycle is also called the calendar method. Both menstruation and ovulation are affected by endocrine hormones from the pituitary gland and ovaries and show cyclical changes. The length of their cycles is the same, both occurring once a month, and ovulation occurs between two menstrual periods. Women's menstrual cycles vary in length, but the interval between ovulation and the start of the next menstruation is relatively fixed, usually around 14 days. Based on this relationship between ovulation and menstruation, the ovulation period can be calculated according to the menstrual cycle. The calculation method is to count from the first day of the next menstrual period, and count down 14 days or subtract 14 days to get the ovulation day. The ovulation day and the 5 days before and 4 days after the ovulation day are called the ovulation period. This is the theoretical basis of the rhythm method of contraception. For example, a woman's menstrual cycle is 28 days, and the first day of this menstruation is December 2nd. Then the next menstruation will be on December 30th (December 2nd plus 28 days). Subtract 14 days from December 30th, and December 16th is the ovulation day. The ovulation day and the 5 days before and 4 days after it, that is, December 11-20, is the ovulation period. Except for the menstrual period and ovulation period, the rest of the time is the safe period. There is no need to use any contraceptive drugs or tools during sexual intercourse during the safe period. In other words, generally speaking, they won’t.

The above is the relevant content about having sex on the first day after menstruation. Here we also want to remind female compatriots that having sex on the first day after menstruation is a safe period, but it is still not recommended, because the menstrual blood is not very clean on the first day after menstruation. If you have sex under this circumstance, you are particularly prone to infection, or even some diseases. So everyone should pay attention to these issues when having sex.
