Yes, if sexual intercourse occurs during ovulation time then you can get pregnant. Ovulation time is from day 12 to day 17 (first day of period counted as day 1) usually in women with regular periods. In women with iregular periods, ovulation can happen anytime, thereby not knowing the time to do sexual intercourse.

Irregular periods mean ovulation doesn't occur consistently, complicating conception timing.
Conception Tips: a. Track ovulation using basal body temperature or ovulation predictor kits. b. Consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
Medical Evaluation: a. Consider seeing a gynecologist or fertility specialist. b. Check for conditions like PCOS or thyroid issues, which can be managed to improve fertility.
Reassurance: Irregular periods don't prevent pregnancy, but medical guidance can enhance your conception journey.

I'm asking about my sister. She's 6 weeks pregnant and due to some financial issues, they're considering not continuing with the pregnancy. Is it possible to have an abortion at 6 weeks? Would it be a medicated or surgical procedure? She's also working, so would she need to take a week or two off for recovery?
