Can I Get Pregnant During Periods With Unprotected Intercourse ?
I was on my period, had been for roughly a week, and then me and my partner had unprotected sex, and the next day my period stopped... Its been about 6 days since that night and lately I ve started getting stomach cramps as if I m about to get my period but I m not due as I ve just had one.. I ve also become quite tired and having a few mood swings. I took a pregancy test yesterday and it said negative but it had only been 4/5 days after intercourse.. So I was just wondering is it possible I could be pregant as I ve read it s unlikely to get pregant on your periods

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Pregnancy is not possible when you had sex during the menstruation.
It is safe period of the cycle and ovulation is not occur during this time and so no fertilization will occur.
Pregnancy test will give positive result when your period will delay by 8-10 days from the normal expected period date.
Your symptoms could be due to hormonal imbalance and premenstrual symptoms.
So wait for the period to come.
If period will delay by more than 14 days then consult the gynecologist for examination.
Avoid stress, take meftal spas for the cramp, drink plenty of water and do regular exercise.
Period can be induced by progesterone pill in absence of the pregnancy
Hope this may help you
