IS it possible to get pg when you have a really short period and short cycles

The length of my period is very short; sometimes I only have to wear tampons for THREE days, although there is still some blood the next day.
And my cycles are also short and between 22 and 25 days.
Can I still get pg?

My cycle was 25 days and I bled for 2-3 - very lightly for one day and then heavy for 2. I'm now pregnant for the second time (although my cycle was a bit longer after DD was born - not sure it really settled down though as I only had three periods before getting pregnant again - they didn't come back until DD was 9mths). Guessing from my implant bleed with the first pregnancy, I ovulated quite early in that cycle. So if you are TTC you need to assume an ovulation window about 2wks before your period anyway - so round about day 8, start trying!

Thanks fleacircus; that's reassuring.
