Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...
No a woman would not get pregnant upon having intercourse on the first day of menstruation. Pregnancy happens when a woman has sexual intercourse near to days in which she has ovulation(release of egg). Ovulation possibility on first day of menstruation is almost zero. Therefore you & your wife should not worry she would not get pregnant.
However a woman canget pregnant if sexual intercourse in done in later days of menstruation(3-last day). It is always better to use protection if pregnancy is unwanted. Also i would like to tell you there is no method to prevent pregnancy after 15 days of sexual intercourse except opting for abortion. The symptoms your wife is facing should be related to anxiety or some other problem.

Refer to a gynaecologist for more queries if any
Hope this information helps
