Dr. Gerard Honore answered

Specializes in Fertility Medicine

Mid-cycle: You are able to conceive around ovulation, which 'usually' happens artound the 14th day of a 28-day cycle. Since sperm are active for roughly 2-3 days, unless you can pinpoint exactly when yoru ovulation is there are no truly safe days.
