I doubt it. You ovulate about 14 days before the start of your period. Most women have a 29-31 day cycle, which means they will ovulate roughly 2 weeks after their period.
Sperm can stay active for up to 72 hours, but you can only get pregnant while you are ovulating.
You can go to keyword "ovulation calculator" those sites can help you better determine your ovulation date and when the best time to start TTC. Best of luck to ya!
