Patient's question:
Is it possible to get pregnant if you have sex on the 3rd day after your period, using withdrawal (ejaculating outside the body)?Doctor's answer:
Ovulation usually occurs in the middle of two menstrual periods, generally around 14 days before the next period. Based on this, the 4 to 5 days before and after ovulation are considered the fertile window, while the rest of the time is considered the safe period. Don't worry, the five days before and after the period are relatively safe, and the likelihood of pregnancy is low.
