Is Pregnancy Possible While On Lutera Pills?

I got my period the last day of week 2 of Lutera pills which is a week earlier than normal. I have been on Lutera for 3 years now. I have not skipped the pills but I had a gallbladder surgery couple of days before I got this early period. I continued with the pack normally. My period is now over and I am still having 3 pills left and then a week of placebo pills. Am I going to be at risk of getting pregnant because of this?
