Hi,
Althea pill is contraceptive pill with anti androgenic effect. It has just 0.5% failure rate after regular use. So pregnancy chance is very less as you used regularly without missing a pill. Do not worry. Wait for period to come. It will come in next 4 to 5 days. Avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water and do regular exercise.
Hope this may help you. Contact further if follow up needed.
Best regards,
Dr. Sagar
