Hello, Scarlateen.
A question, Is this possible ...?
Intercourse 1 or 2 days before period, then period starts, then conception just after period?
Thanks.
Is this possible?

Please do not wait on us if you may need or want EC (like the morning-after pill). Because it is most effective the sooner it is taken or administered, we suggest that you go ahead and get it, and if you want to talk to someone about whether or not you choose to use it, we can do that with you after. That way, you have it ASAP if you do decide you want or need to use it. <3

Re: Is this possible?
It's possible, but very highly unlikely, simply because someone who is ovulating is generally not going to be menstruating just a couple days later (as very different hormonal signals need to be sent), and certainly not at the same time.

Re: Is this possible?
Oh, I think I didn't write it right.
I mean:
Intercourse > 1 or 2 days after intercourse, period start > Ovulation and conception just after period finished.

People can ovulate soon after a period is finished, sure, however, sperm cells cannot survive in the vagina both for that long (from intercourse before a period has even begun) nor through days of menstrual flow.
