Can I get pregnant if I have intercourse before ovulation bleeding?

However, not all sexual activity leads to pregnancy. There is still some debate as to whether having sex before ovulation bleeding can increase the chance of pregnancy.

There is some research that suggests scheduling sex before ovulation bleeding may increase your chances of getting pregnant. This is because during this time, a woman's eggs may be more viable and more likely to combine with sperm. Additionally, some believe that scheduling sex before ovulation bleeding can better allow sperm to enter a woman's body, thereby increasing her chances of pregnancy.

However, the results of these studies are inconsistent and therefore remain somewhat controversial. Additionally, some research suggests that scheduling sex before ovulatory bleeding does not lead to pregnancy or may reduce the chance of pregnancy.
