Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
There is no absolutely safe period of the cycle. The first 7-8 days o the cycle including the bleeding days and the last 10 days of the cycle are considered comparatively safe and the chances of conception during this period is less than 10%. But this is valid only if you have a regular 28 day ovulatory cycles.
