It is more likely you get pregnant by having sex before ovulation as sperm can take anything from 20 minutes to a day or so to travel to fallopian tubes to meet the egg. If they arrive before egg is released they will wait there dormant until it is time. Sperm can last days in the uterus where as the egg can only survive on average 24 hours without being fertilised. So if u have sex on or after ovulation day the egg could have expired before sperm gets there. The 5 days before ovulation are the best days to try to concieve.

Is it more or less likely to get pregnant while on your period?
Less likely, but still possible. A woman can only get pregnant if she has sex either during ovulation or up to a week before ovulation when there is fertile quality cervical mucus present - this helps keep the sperm alive for up to 7 days and helps it to swim up through the cervical opening. During an average 28 day cycle a woman will be fertile between days 7-16 (ovulation on day 14, there can be a viable egg present for up to 48 hours) - by the time a woman menstruates the egg from the last cycle is long dead, and she cannot ovulate during menstruation. However if a woman's menstrual cycle is short she may ovulate soon after menstruation, thus if she was to have sex during her period sperm could survive up to 7 days, by which time she may have ovulated and thus she may get pregnant.
Are you more liekly to have a boy if you get preg after yourt period?
There is no scientific research that supports that you can influence the sex/gender of your baby by having sex at a specific time or in a specific way. You are however more likely to get pregnant after your period because you will begin to ovulate shortly after your period ends.
What is the probability of getting pregnant if sperm come out?
Depends on how far along the woman is in her monthly cycle of menstruation and ovulation. Women are most fertile two days before through two days after they ovulate, which occurs approximately 14 days after their last menstrual cycle. However, sperm has been said to survive up to 72 hours after coitus (sex). Even if a man does not ejaculate (i.e. "pulls out"), sperm is still released during sex, in the form of pre-ejaculate (which occurs during coitus and is virtually undetectable by either partner). Therefore, you CAN get a girl pregnant even if you pull out, and there is a good week or more that she can easily get pregnant out of each month--and that week is actually harder to pin down than just counting calendars.
