A member asked:

Is it possible to get pregnant if youre period is late. you have sex. 2 days later it starts. don't think so just want opinions?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Very doubtful: however, look at it this way: ANY unprotected sexual intercourse can lead to pregnancy. Sperm cells can be present in clear male sexual secretions. The fact that your cycle started is great: not using birth control and condoms...not so much. Time to see your gYN and protect yourself from pregnancy and STDs
