Can I get pregnant if I have sex the next day after my period ends?

Although there are more and more contraceptive methods nowadays, many people still take chances, especially some younger people, who choose not to use any contraceptive methods during the safe period. But in fact, the safe period is not necessarily accurate. Many women do not ovulate at the right time, and may ovulate during the so-called safe period. Let's find out if you can get pregnant by having sex on the second day after your period ends.

1. Can I get pregnant after my period?

The best time to conceive is to have sex about 14 days before the next menstruation. For women with regular menstruation, ovulation is about 14 days before the next menstruation. After the egg is released, it can generally survive for 1-2 days, and the sperm can only survive for 1-3 days in the female reproductive organ. Therefore, it is easier to conceive if you have sex within 5 days before and 4 days after ovulation without taking contraceptive measures. Except for the 5 days before and 4 days after ovulation and the menstrual period, the rest of the time is a safe period and pregnancy generally will not occur.

Generally, follicles will begin to appear and develop on the fifth to seventh day after menstruation. Generally, 1-2 follicles will begin to develop. The smallest follicle is only 4-5mm in diameter. However, as time goes by, the follicle will slowly grow larger. After the follicle begins to appear, it will gradually grow. Before the tenth day after menstruation, the average follicle will grow by 1.2mm per day, and by the eleventh day it will grow by 1.9mm. By the fourteenth day after menstruation, the follicle will mature and ovulate after maturity.

The first thing to tell patients is that taking emergency contraceptive pills within 72 hours after sexual intercourse can have a preventive effect. It is recommended that patients try Jin Yuting contraceptive pills, which are very effective in preventing pregnancy. However, emergency contraceptive pills have very serious side effects. Basically, they only need to be taken 1 to 2 times a year and cannot be taken for a long time.

Healthy women's menstruation usually comes on a monthly basis. If it does not come after the due date, the first thing to think of is the possibility of pregnancy. Generally speaking, if the period has passed for a week, the doctor can roughly detect the signs of pregnancy. If it is one month past due, pregnancy is easier to confirm. Some women, even though they are pregnant, still have their period once or twice when they should, but the amount of blood is less than usual and the duration is shorter. If you have regular periods and are sexually active, you can still get pregnant even if you take birth control pills or use other forms of birth control.
