* Fertile Window: Sperm can survive inside a woman's body for up to 5 days, and an egg can be fertilized for about 12-24 hours after ovulation. This means that a woman can get pregnant if she has unprotected sex anywhere from 5 days before ovulation to 1 day after.
So, even if you're not on your period, you can still get pregnant if you have sex during your fertile window.
