Is Conception Possible Despite Taking Tri-Sprintec After Having Unsafe Sex?

I ve been on tri sprintec (combination pill) for about 4 years now. My period ended this past Sunday and on the same day I was supposed to pick up my new pack and start it that Sunday. I forgot and didn t end up getting it until Tuesday.so Tuesday I took two pills(for Sunday and Monday) and Wednesday I took two pills( for Tuesday and Wednesday). By Thursday I was back on track and Took one pill. Friday I took one pill and Saturday I took one pill. Saturday night I had unprotected sex. Sunday which is today, I took one pill. Would I have been back on track before having sex on that Saturday and could i have had an increased chance of getting pregnant?

Hello,

Even though you took two pills as soon as you remembered you took them too late and had two days uncovered. You have increased risk of getting pregnant but can't be said exactly how much. Continue the pills as usual.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
