  Yes, it is possible for a girl to get pregnant even if she hasn’t started her periods yet, though it’s less common. A girl can get pregnant as soon as her body starts ovulating, which can happen before the first period. Ovulation is the release of an egg from the ovary, and if that egg is fertilized by sperm, pregnancy can occur.
