Menstrual cycles are usually about 28 days long, and the most fertile time can be about 14 days in (though this varies for women, and sperm can also live in the body for up to 7 days). Day 1 is the first day of a girl's period.
If her period was about 6 days long, and it's now 8 days past then, then she is on Day 14 - quite possibly the most fertile time of the month for her.
If your question is whether or not someone can be pregnant even though they've had their period, there is a slight chance. But if her period came at the normal time and was the normal length and heaviness, she's probably not pregnant. [ alisonmarie's advice column | Ask alisonmarie A Question ]
