Dr. Robert Killian answered

Specializes in General Practice

Ovulation: Without knowing when you ovulate during your cycle and how long your periods are any answer to your question is pure speculation. But, in general ovulation day is not two days before the period starts and you are not likely to be pregnant if that is the only time you were exposed to semen during the cycle.
