Can I be pregnant from sex a day before my period? It's a common question, and a good one actually.
The answer is basically no. You can get pregnant from sex during ovulation, or about a five day window before you ovulate because sperm stays alive inside a woman for that long. If you do get pregnant, that's to say, if an egg is fertilized, it then starts traveling down and will eventually attach to the uterus. This process takes about seven days.
If menstruation comes along before that time, the fertilized egg is just flushed out with menstruation. And if you have sex literally a day before your period, not only will there not be time for an egg to attach to your uterus, it actually won't be fertilized at all because no ripe eggs are around at that time.
But... don't go having sex a day before your period is DUE because maybe your cycle is irregular or something weird happens, and there's a small chance you will end up pregnant anyway. Basically, if you really don't want to get pregnant, always use contraception just in case. If you are not sure about pregnancy but know you'd welcome a pregnancy if it happened anyway, then you can use this kind of approach. Some couples do.
