Can Birth Control Pill Be Taken After Having Unprotected Sex?

I'm on the birth control pill and have been for 3 months. I just started college and I have not been the best pill taker. There were two nights that I forgot to take the pill and took it immediately after I woke up the next morning. My period came last Wednesday as it should have and was finished yesterday morning, like it usually is. Last night, I had unprotected sex and the boy came outside but on me. Because I was with him, I ended up taking my first pill of the new pill pack 3-4 hours later than I normally take it. Now I am extremely worried. Should I go to a doctor and get the day after pill or will I be fine without taking it?
