Pregnancy faq

will I get pregnant if I get my peroid ?

If you got your period after you had relations, then you don't need to worry, you're not pregnant. However, if you are asking if you're pregnant simply because you have your period, no, typically, your period means you're not pregnant. While pregnant, you don't have your menstruel cycles as normal.

That is untrue. I teach middle school sex ed. You can still have your period eventhough you might be pregnant. Is it likely, no. Has it happened, yes. One reason is if twins run in your family, you would have two eggs to be fertilized. If only on egg is fertilized than the other one with shed from the lining of your uterus. Also some times the fertilized egg stays in your fallopin tubes (place of contraception) and it takes days to travel to the uterus. If it isn't there in time prior to the shedding, you might get your period but be pregnant at the same time.
