Back to School?: A female is fertile during ovulation not during her period. Sperm that are left in the vagina during the five days leading up to ovulation are the sperm that cause pregnancy. Sperm survive up to five days inside of a female's body.

Up to 5 days: Sperm can live up to 5 days in the vagina. Ovulation occurs 14 days before a period starts and a woman is fertile 5days before and 5 days after ovulation.
