7 Myths About Her Period pregnant

MYTH #2: YOU CAN’T GET HER PREGNANT DURING HER PERIOD
Sperm can live in the body for up to five days, and ovulation doesn’t always occur in the middle of her cycle. So if you’re having unprotected sex and she’s not on birth control, she can end up pregnant at any pretty much time of the month.

MYTH #3: PMS IS BULLSHIT
Right before her period starts, changes in hormones can lead to a slew of symptoms ranging from acne to headaches to tension to depression. According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, about 85 percent of women have at least one PMS symptom per cycle. So give her a break, or give her some space.
