Hi, Ashleigh27

Thank you for your post.

Anytime you have unprotected sex there is some risk. That said, the highest risk of pregnancy is during the second and third weeks of the menstrual cycle. While a normal cycle is considered anywhere between 21 and 35 days, the average is about 28 days. Ovulation (the time when a woman is fertile) occurs mid-month, this averages to day 14 every month give or take several days before and after.
