I have a 28 day and first day of my period was july 29 I had unprotected sex on the 6th August and then on the 17th August on the 17th i took plan b morning after pill and now I'm pregnant. When was my likely date to have got pregnant? 

Hi Dianney,

Normally you'd ovulate sometime between days 11-16 of your cycle.

The 6th of August would have been day 8 of your cycle.  Sperm can survive about 5 days so if you ovulate early, you could have gotten pregnant then.

The 17th of August would have been day 19 of your cycle.  Normally, 48 hours after ovulation the egg is not viable, so after the 18th, it wouldn't be likely that you'd conceive.  Plan B is also very effective within 72 hours.

It's likely the 6th of August.

The only way to know for sure however will be to have a DNA test done.

Good luck.
