A member asked:

Can a female get pregnact 3 days after ovulation ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No, but . . .: It is difficult to know for certain exactly when you ovulate. Ovulation tests or the various symptoms associated with ovulation (stretchy mucus, pain, temperature rise) cannot pinpoint it that precisely. If you are just a little off in your calculation and you are actually within 24 hours of ovulation then you could get pregnant.
