Started Yasmin Birth Control Pill On The Fourth Day But At Irregular Intervals. Are There Any Chances Of Pregnancy?

Hi! I started taking the birth control pill Yasmin on the 4th day after my period ended. This was on Wednesday December 5. However, I did not take the pill at the same time every morning and took it a few hours after the 24 hours stipulated. Is there any chance then that sex on Saturday 8th can lead to pregnancy? Should I take emergency contraception like the ipill anyway?

You should take emergency contraceptive pills.
Thanks
