A member asked:

Sex with a condom 2-3 days before period due! chances of pregnancy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Ron Eaker answered

Always a chance: The use of the condom is often quoted as a protection rate of >98% if used appropriately. The timing is not as protective as you may ovulate at different times.
