Use contraception. When you're on your period, you're at higher risk for STDs and pelvic infections. What's more, you're less likely to get pregnant, sure, but it's not impossible. So if you thought this was your ticket to ride, sorry -- you still gotta stay safe.
Because a girl can ovulate before having her first period, it is possible to become pregnant if she has sex. Pregnancy isn't the only concern about having sex â any time a girl has sex, especially unprotected sex, she runs the risk of getting a sexually transmitted disease (STD) (also called a sexually transmitted infection, or STI).
