A member asked:

I had unprotected sex a day before my menstrual bleeding, hw safe is that?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pretty safe: If you have regular cycles, then you were at a safe time in your cycle and pregnancy is unlikely. The chance for sexually transmitted disease is always a risk without using protection.
