When is the best time to have sex and not get pregnant?

How many days before and after period is safe?

You’re most fertile at the time of ovulation (when an egg is released from your ovaries), which usually occurs 12 to 14 days before your next period starts. This is the time of the month when you’re most likely to get pregnant. It’s unlikely that you’ll get pregnant just after your period, although it can happen.

When can a woman not get pregnant?

A woman’s peak reproductive years are between the late teens and late 20s. By age 30, fertility (the ability to get pregnant) starts to decline. This decline becomes more rapid once you reach your mid-30s. By 45, fertility has declined so much that getting pregnant naturally is unlikely for most women.

How do I calculate my safe period to avoid pregnancy?

To predict the first fertile day (when you can get pregnant) in your current cycle:

1. Find the shortest cycle in your past record.
2. Subtract 18 from the total number of days in that cycle.
3. Count that number from day 1 of your current cycle, and mark that day with an X.
4. The day marked X is your first fertile day.
