Can you get pregnant on your period?

Yes, although it's not very likely. If you have sex without using contraception, you can conceive (get pregnant) at any time during your menstrual cycle, even during or just after your period.

Can my girlfriend get pregnant if I ejaculated on her panties and her vagina area while she was wearing them? I'm kind of worried and would love some advice on this.

Yes, there is a possibility of pregnancy in this situation. It is important to consider emergency contraception as soon as possible. I recommend taking an emergency contraceptive pill such as Plan B One-Step within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse to reduce the risk of pregnancy.
