First things first, your period and ovulation are different.
On average: women ovulate 14 days before their period starts.
The ovulation is the release of an egg from the ovaries.
The period is the shedding of the lining of the womb.
Once released, the egg lives for about 2 days.
if the egg isn't fertalised, it expires and a period occurs about 12 days later.
Also, sperm live in the womans body for about 5 days after sex, waiting for an egg to be released.
unprotected sex always carries a risk of pregnancy/STDs.
if you are young, have an irregular cycle or a short cycle you are more likely to ovulate at an unpredictable time, and therefore you could get pregnant on your period! it is all very possible, although the chances are a little lower than if you had had sex later/
