Brief Answer:
Too early for pregnancy symptoms.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for posting your query.

If you happened to be in the ovulation phase at the time of the intercourse, especially after an unprotected one, you have high chance of conception. Yet, 6 days is too early for manifestation of symptoms. Symptoms are noticed at the time of the expected period and later on.

You can go for the assessment of the serum beta-hCG titres 10 days after the intercourse to confirm/exclude pregnancy. This is the earliest way apart from noting down basal body temperature from day 1.

Hope your query has been clarified. Please feel free to contact for further information. I will be ready to help.

regards,
Shanti.V.
