Is 8th day from the first period of menstruaton safe?

No, the 8th day of the menstrual cycle is not generally considered a safe day to have unprotected sex.

The menstrual cycle is counted from the first day of menstruation to the day before the next period starts. The average menstrual cycle is 28 days, but it can vary from 21 to 35 days.

Ovulation, which is the release of an egg from the ovary, usually occurs around day 14 of the menstrual cycle. However, it can occur earlier or later, depending on the individual.

If you have unprotected sex on the 8th day of your menstrual cycle, there is a chance that you could get pregnant, especially if you have a shorter menstrual cycle. This is because sperm can live in the female reproductive tract for up to 5 days, so they could still be present when ovulation occurs.

If you are trying to avoid pregnancy, it is important to use contraception during any time of the menstrual cycle when there is a chance of ovulation occurring. This includes the days leading up to ovulation and the day of ovulation itself.
