Hello dear,

For pregnancy to occur, there should be fertilization of sperm with the ovum.
The ovum is released on the 14th day of the menstrual cycle.

As per your your post, you had sexual intercourse with your husband on the 6th day of your period.
Considering that your cycles are regular, 6th day will be considered a safe period as there would have been no ovum present for the sperm to fertilize.
Also the sperm cannot survive inside the genital tract for another 8 days for fertilization to occur.
Based on the above mentioned facts, there is no chance of pregnancy.

There is no need to worry.
Wishing you a healthy life.
Take care.
