Welcome to HCM.
12 the day of cycle is fertile period,during this day chances of pregnancy is there but you are taking althea tab from 3rd day regularly then there is no any chance of pregnancy.It will work for contraceptive effect and even no need to take any extra pill.
Don't get anxious.Continue your pill.
