Generally, no: Women get pregnant about 14 days before the day that the NEXT menstrual period is supposed to come... and if pregnant, that day actually won't come for another 10 months or so, after a cute little baby is born. Guessing days leads to pregnancy, so a woman trying not to get pregnant needs to have a reliable form of birth control all the time.

Yes: Pregnancy has been documented from unprotected exposure on any day of a woman's cycle including during menses. It is rare, but when it happens it is more likely among the irregular. Your cycle may be a estrogen breakdown cycle after a missed ovulation (makes you irregular). You could then ovulate and be ready to conceive at any point.

Depends : It depends on how long your cycles are. Usually you will ovulate about 14 days prior to the start of your period. This would be day 14 for a 28 day cycle. Some women do ovulate that early. Sperm can live 4-5 days as well so intercourse on day 9 could result in a pregnancy if ovulation happened on day 13-14.

Ejaculate: The fluid that is emitted prior to ejaculation usually carries some sperm and can definitely result in a pregnancy. It is impossie to give odds but in the future, if you don't want to get pregnant, you should use a condomand birth control pills.

Yes: It is possible to get pregnant two days after finishing your period. Ovulation usually happens around 14 days after your period starts; however, sperm can hang around for 5 days. Conception may not occur 2 days after you finish your period when you had intercourse but later when you ovulate the sperm are ready and waiting. Best wishes!
