How many days after you come on are you fertile?

I have a 28 day cycle.

Thanks

Hi Blossom
During your cycle you will have different phases and you can tell this with your cervical mucus, obviously when you are ovulating you will be very fertile and this will be over about 3 days, before this you will be relatively fertile and this will last about 5-7 days (depending on your cycle) so it is best to BD around this time too, especially if your DH/DP has good sperm!
I think most people here try every other day at least in their fertile times
I keep posting a link to a website which will explain all this so I'll post it again

hope this is useful and makes sense

given that sperm can survive 5 days, and you would probably ovulate around day 14, I guess from about day nine! That's just a guesstimate. As people can ovulate unexpectedly early in the cycle, you can never say for certain there is any safe time during your cycle before you actually ovulate (unless you go in for thorough charting/persona use etc). It's not impossible for women to get PG if they have sex during their periods!
