A member asked:

With a 28day cycle (5day period) if i have sex on day 9 of my cycle (counting from day 1), can i get pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Potential pregnancy: Having unprotected sex on cycle day 9 with having a normal 28 day cycle means that you likely had sex 5 days prior to ovulation. Since the sperm only live in the female's reproductive tract for a max of 3 days it's safe to assume thay you haven't conceived.
