Can you still get pregnant if your menstrual cycle is irregular?

Patient's question:

A 18-year-old girl had sex on the sixth day of her aunt's period. Then, 4.5 days later, she suddenly started to have brown discharge again. Her menstrual cycle has always been very regular, but it lasts for about a week each time, followed by several days of discharge. Recently, she has been feeling nauseous and is worried about whether she might be pregnant or if something is wrong with her body.

Doctor's answer:

Generally, only during the ovulation period do sperm and eggs meet and combine to result in conception. The ovulation period is approximately 14 days before menstruation. The seven days after menstruation is considered the safe period, during which pregnancy is highly unlikely.
The condition you described is due to endocrine disorders, which would absolutely not lead to pregnancy.
Women with menstrual irregularities can, while undergoing professional treatment, use herbal remedies as supplementary therapy in daily life. It is essential to avoid extreme hunger or overeating in daily dietary habits and to absolutely refrain from binge eating.
