Hi, Anon. So glad you found EmpowHer, but part of your question got cut off. I am not sure I understand what you're asking.

Are you asking whether you can get pregnant during the 7 days of sugar pills that you take while you are having your period?

The answer is no, unless you didn't take your pills properly during the 21 days before that. The pills, taken correctly, prevent ovulation. No ovulation, no pregnancy. There is always a 1%-3% chance that birth control pills can fail, but that's a pretty slim chance.

If I misinterpreted your question, please let me know!!
