When do you stop ovulating?

I’ve tried to get pregnant like I don’t even know how many times! I want to know if you can be pregnant and ovulate at the same time? Or do you stop ovulating right after intercourse? Or does it take a few days? I’m so confused!

Dear kim22, For women who have regular cycles, ovulating during your period is highly unlikely. Some women have very irregular cycles, maybe coming once every 3 months or 2-3 times in one month, and these women can have the odd occurrence of ovulating during a period or what is believed to be a period. Still, the chance of ovulating during a period is unlikely. But because sperm can live in the body for 3-5 days, pregnancy could occur from intercourse that takes place during a period. So not all women ovulate each month. Seeing a doctor to determine your cycle is very important and they will give you all the ways to keep track of ovulation. There are a lot of myths out there…let a doctor enlighten you. Sue…good luck
