Actually...yes: Assuming your menstrual cycles are about 28-30 days apart, you ovulate on day 14 or 15. This means that after day 14, there is a health egg available, which will be fertile for at least 7 days. Since sperm can survive for a few days inside your body, you should consider yourself to be potentially fertile from about day 11 to about day 24 after the START of your last period. Good news or bad???

Your "fertile: window" depends on the length of your menstrual cycle; day 1 is the 1st day of your menstrual period & the last day is the day before the next period begins. Calculate it on : your fertility.org.au/for-women/timing-and-conception. Unprotected sex is a gamble in more ways than one. See an OB-GYN for STI testing & ask your partner to get tested. Use a birth control method that you'll adhere to.
