Many couples will choose to have sex during the safe period. They all stubbornly believe that they will not get pregnant during the safe period. There is no need to use condoms, so is it really impossible to get pregnant during the safe period?

Can I get pregnant during the safe period?

Normal women will have a menstrual cycle once a month. From the beginning of this menstrual cycle to the first day of the next menstrual cycle, this period is called a menstrual cycle. Each menstrual cycle of a woman can simply be It is divided into ovulation period and safety period.

A woman's ovulation period is generally about 14 days before the next menstrual period. Eggs generally survive in the fallopian tube for one to two days after being released from the ovary, waiting for fertilization at this time; male sperm will also be in the female body. It survives for 2 to three days, so it is very easy to get pregnant if you have intercourse a few days before and after the female egg is released. To be on the safe side, we generally call the 5 days before and 4 days after ovulation, plus the day of ovulation, a total of 10 days as the ovulation period. Because of the unique characteristics of pregnancy during ovulation, it is also called a dangerous period.

Correspondingly, the period of 7 to 8 days before the arrival of the aunt is called the safe period. During this time, women do not ovulate. So a big misunderstanding has arisen. Many people think that since there is no ovulation at this time, then pregnancy will definitely not happen. In fact, during this period, although the chance of pregnancy is relatively small, it is not absolute. This also depends on whether the woman's own ovulation is regular. If the ovulation period is irregular, then the term "safe period" will no longer exist.
