Dear Henry,

Pregnancy occurs due to fusion of sperm with ovum.
And ovum is released on the 14th day of the Menstrual cycle.
So, if you had intercourse with your girlfriend during her periods, there is no chance of pregnancy.
However, in near future it is advisable to use precaution to prevent any chance of pregnancy as well as any risk of STDs.

Take care.
