Does menarche mean a girl can get pregnant? or before it or after it? there's so much debate on this, whether you ovuate before menarche or dont.

It happens: Yes, it is possible for a girl to get pregnant before she has her first menstrual period. Although it is relatively uncommon, ovulation can occur prior to menarche, and pregnancy is a risk.
