Hi. My name is Denesia and im kinda new to this, but i would appreciate all the help i can get. My boyfriend and I are trying to have a little one. We had unprtected sex three times before my period. Now my cycle is very irregular i can go months with out it. But for some reason after those three times of unprotected sex i came on and it only lasted 2days. I normally last a whole week. After my cycle which lasted june the 18 we've had unprotected sex for about a week. What are my chances of being pregnant now?
