Is it possible to get pregnant if you had sex 10 days before your ovulation window?

Question

How easy is it to get pregnant? I don't really understand how it happens because everyone makes it seem like if you have sex at any point in your cycle you can get pregnant

Answer

Cause you can. It's always possible if you have unprotected sex.

Answer

No. The egg is only viable for fertilization for 24 hours. However, there is a chance to ovulate irregularly (outside the usual time in a cycle), especially if you have irregular cycles.

So, if you want to know when you actually ovulate, checking cervical mucus and basal body temperature very diligently should give you a good idea of when you ovulated for each particular cycle.
