Can Ovulation Occur During Menstruation?

Hay i have been trying to fall pregnant for about 9 months I'm getting worried that it has not happend yet. I was wondering if you can still fall pregnant if you ovulate the same time as you have your period because I have taken a ovulation kit but it says I am ovulating on my period? Will this mean it will be harder to fall pregnant? :(

Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern.
Ovulation could occur on last days of menstrual bleeding in some women who have short period cycle. This is nothing abnormal.
Yes could get pregnant if you have sex in days near to which ovulation occur. So you should try to have sex with your husband on 1-2 days before your ovulation to 2 days after ovulation. This would increase your chances of getting pregnant.

For more queries consult a gynaecologist
Hope this information helps

Hello and welcome to HCM,
Ovulation kit consists of drugs which stimulate and initiate ovulation.
An ovulation kit will not stop or interfere with menstruation.
Ovulation takes place 14 days before first day of onset of menstruation.
Ovulation does not take place during onset of menstruation.
During ovulation, conception can take place and if conception does not take place, the unfertilized ovum is shed along with endometrial lining in the form of blood and bits of endometrium.
Ovulation can be stimulated or initiated with ovulation kits so, it will increase the chances of falling pregnant and not decrease the chance.

Thanks and take care
Dr Shailja Puri
