Brief Answer:
Extremely low chance of pregnancy

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand the concerns.
Novex DS is not a contraceptive, so chances of Pregnancy are there.
However, since you had intercourse on day 5 of the periods, therefore the chances of Pregnancy are extremely low.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
