Pregnancy Chances After Your Period: What You Need to Know

It is unlikely that you will get pregnant if you had unprotected sex on the last day after your period stops. This is because ovulation, the process in which an egg is released from your ovary, usually happens around 14 days before your next period starts. Since your period just stopped, ovulation is probably at least a week away, although there are exceptions based on the length of your menstrual cycle.
