Will I get pregnant if I have sex one week before my period?

Patient's question:

I am supposed to get my period on the 30th. I had unprotected sex on the 23rd. Could I be pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the possibility of pregnancy in your situation is unlikely because it is in the safe period. Ovulation occurs around 14 days after menstruation, and sexual activity during this time is more likely to result in pregnancy. However, the safe period is not absolute; it is relative. Using the safe period for contraception is not entirely reliable. It is recommended to use condoms or oral contraceptives for birth control in the future. Generally, doctors advise women with signs of prenatal examination risks to pay attention to keeping warm and avoiding coldness. Additionally, patients should create an environment that promotes emotional stability and stress relief. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
