How many days after period can you not get pregnant?

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

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.

Can someone actually get pregnant if there's no penetration involved but just rubbing a naked penis around the vulva? I've heard that precum could be a factor, so how real is the risk here? I'm kinda worried and curious about how this works.

Yes, it is possible to get pregnant from genital rubbing if precum (pre-ejaculatory fluid) comes into contact with the vaginal area. While the chances are lower compared to direct penetration, sperm in the precum can still lead to pregnancy.

I'm experiencing swollen breasts for the past two weeks, and my periods are due on May 29th. I took a pregnancy test and it came back negative. Should I see a doctor? Is it possible to detect pregnancy before a missed period?

I've been using the Prega News kit, and there's a very faint line that showed up after a minute of taking the test. It wasn't there when I first checked right after the test. This faint line is barely visible, doesn't have much color, and it isn't showing in the picture I took. Does this mean it's just too early to tell, or could this mean a negative result? I'm a bit unsure and would love some guidance on this.

-A very faint line can sometimes appear when the test is taken early, as the hCG levels might be too low to show a strong result. It's best to wait a few more days and retest, as testing too early can lead to unclear results.
