If you have sex while your on your period
will you stop bleeding if you pregnant?
If you have sex and you keep on bleeding
are you ok?

Being on your period and still bleeding
after sex does not guarantee that you
aren't pregnant. Since you were on your
period, the chances of getting pregnant
are more slim. However, it is possible.
I would recommend not listening to any
wives tales about not being able to get
pregnant while you're on your period and
always use protection.
Don't stress out though, or it will make
your next period delay and that's just
unneeded complications!
Good luck

But, when you are on your period there is
no egg to fertilize, and wouldn't you just
bleed out all the sperm? I don't
understand how you even could get
pregnant.

Well.. Posted: 10-05-03 15:05pm
The chances of getting pregnant while on
your period are very slim, but still
possible. Depends on what day in your
cycle etc.. The days just after your
period are when your chances are very very
very low because there's nothing to
fertilize.
Unless you're trying to get pregnant and
are in the situation to do that you should
always use protection against pregnancy
and more importantly against sexually
transmitted diseases.
And not to start a war of words as i'm
relatively new here but it's my opinion
that if you have questions like this you
shouldn't be having sex in the first
place.

I think a pregnancy forum is designed to
have people ask questions without them
being judged. Maybe im damned good and
ready and able to pay the consequences of
taking that risk. I'm not an expert
about ovulation cycles and other crap like
that, but I do know the responsibility of
raising child. I've taken care of small
children all my life. So please don't
make comments about things you know
nothing about. I may sound like a dumb,
scared teenager who knows nothing about
life, and does things without thinking,
but I am ready to reap the consequences
what I sow. So please don't tell me what
I should or shouldn't be doing. I was
just asking for friendly advice.

You're definately right, this is not a
forum to judge whether or not anyone
should be having sex. Maybe none of
should have sex, who knows??? She is
right though, it is definately possible to
get pregnant while you're on your period.
I actually know someone who did. Just be
careful next time!!! I would suggest just
waiting until your next period and if it's
late, take a test.
Keep us posted

Like I said i'm not trying to start a
war.. Cause i'm not.. I've been reading
this site for about a week and i'm shocked
and amazed at some of these posts. Please
don't take what I said personally... It's
just my opinion and my opinion isn't
really directed at you personally. I
don't know you..Your life...Your
circumstances, you could be a 35 year old
woman who's just got a question. Sorry if
it came across that way.
In my line of work I see soooooooooooooo
many young girls from 9-18 yes I said 9.
Who are pregnant and making these life
altering choices on something they're
really not informed or educated on. I'm
really not one to judge, I work in this
field daily. But reading this site is a
real eye opener for me.
I came here because a patient of mine told
me about it and i've been reading these
posts and been trying to give advice and
such the best way I can. I apologize if
my words hurt you because as I said before
they weren't really aimed at you.
Just a frustrated worker who now sees why
teen pregnancy is running so rampant in
this country.

While I am definately an advocate on
waiting until you're married, or at least
emotionally ready, I think it's important
for everyone who comes here to feel safe.
I'm married but there are still questions
I have. I understand where you're coming
from, but it's hard for people to come
here and feel safe with their privacy and
emotions if they feel like they're going
to be yelled at. That's one reason
they're not going to their moms.
Teenage pregnancy is definately a problem,
so I think education is definately
important. But nobody will learn anything
if they're tuning you out for yelling at
them.

I'm not "yelling" at anyone. I stated my
opinion in a moment of frustrated
weakness, that I don't apologize for.
But I do apologize if anyone was
offended/hurt by anything I said or if
they felt it was directed at them.
I wish you all the best of luck in your
endeavours. Personally i'm going to take
my leave of this site as much as I can
help, obviously I can hurt. And i'm not
one for holding back good or bad. I deal
in reality not emotions and the like. So
with that I say nice meeting/talking with
you all and best of luck in all you do.
