Is Pregnancy Possible Through Unprotected Sex During Periods?
I am having a missing period by 8 days. My period is regular and have never missed. It is usually 28-30 days max. And I and my fiancé had sex on 4th day of my last period. Is it possible to be pregnant ??? That is not my ovulating period though.. I have started taking Herbalife this month for diet.. please help me

Hello
The answer is yes and no. The probability is that you would not get pregnant having sex during your period.
Apart from being messier and less desirable, having sex during your period will more than likely not result in getting pregnant.
However the other truth is, that the sperm remain alive for 3-4 days after sex, and there is a small chance that an early ovulation will cause pregnancy.
