Will I get pregnant if I have sex 3 days after my period?

Some women can't wait to have sex with their lovers as soon as their menstrual period ends, and they don't take any contraceptive measures, but after having sex, they worry that they will get pregnant. So, can you get pregnant if you have sex right after your menstrual period? Let me introduce it in detail below.

Generally speaking, if you have sex 3 days after your period ends and 3 days before your period starts, you will not get pregnant even if you don't take any contraceptive measures. Since it is not the ovulation period in the past few days, the uterus does not have the conditions for embryo implantation; in addition, if you have sex right after your menstrual period, some sperm and seminal fluid may enter the woman's blood and respiratory system through the uterine wound that has not been completely rebuilt and repaired, stimulate the immune system and produce sperm antibodies, thus causing immune infertility. Therefore, the chance of pregnancy is lower if you have sex right after your menstrual period. If you are really worried, you can see a doctor for a blood HCG test 10 days after having sex to diagnose whether you are pregnant.

Because every woman's menstrual cycle and menstrual period are different, pregnancy may occur if you have sex three days after your period, but the chances of pregnancy for most women are very low. For example, the normal menstrual cycle is a regular 28 days, while the menstrual period is 7 days. The 3 days after the menstrual period, that is, the tenth day of the menstrual period, the chance of pregnancy during intercourse at this time is relatively small. But if a woman's normal menstrual cycle is 21 days, and the menstrual period is 5 days, then 3 days after the menstrual period is the eighth day of the menstrual period, which is the ovulation period, so the chance of pregnancy during intercourse is very high. For women who are not pregnant, it is still recommended to wear condoms for contraception or take emergency contraceptive pills after intercourse for rescue.

It is worth noting that when a woman's menstrual period just ends, there are still some ruptured blood vessels and glands on the surface of her uterus, the small blood vessels are still bleeding, and the new uterine wall has just begun to grow, which means that it has not yet been covered by epithelial cells. Although the wound had stopped bleeding at this time, it had not been completely reconstructed and repaired. Once sexual intercourse is carried out at this time, the mechanical stimulation will damage the wounds that have not been completely repaired, resulting in bleeding. Therefore, women should wait 2 to 3 days after their menstrual period before having sex, which is more beneficial to their reproductive health.
