Yes: Conception has occurred at any point in a womans cycle and under odd circumstances.It is less likely during menses but possible. Those with irregular patterns of menses are at more risk.

UNLIKELY BUT POSSIBL: First of all you should not have sex with the tempon on, as during vaginal intercourse it will get pushed too far in by the penis and may become difficult to remove and may cause pain or discomfort as well. Secondly there is always a remote chence of getting pregnant as sperms survive in vagina for 5 days, even though ovulation occurs mid period, sometime it may occur early.Pregnancy iunlikely/possib.
