What are the chances of getting pregnant 2 days before ovulation? i had sex using withdrawal, took an ovulation test the next day and it was positive

High: Conception likely to occur 24-36 hrs prior to ovulation. Keep in mind the sperm can survive in the vagina for approximately 72 hrs.

Oops! PG alert!: Withdrawal is NOT a contraceptive method as sperm/semen are released prior to ejaculation. Sperm can also live up to 5 days inside the female genital tract waiting to fertilize a forthcoming egg. Soooo... Pregnancy is very possible, and a pregnancy test is in order if the period is late. Oopsies can be avoided with any number of real contraceptive methods, so try one next time no "question" asked
