Used Morning After Pill After Unprotected Sex. On Birth Control. Chances Of Pregnancy?

birth control
hi,
my girlfriend is on birth control pills. within the first 2 week period of starting the regiment, we had unprotected sex, but she took a morning after pill. I believe that she's been using both forms of birth control as prescribed by a medical practitioner.
is it possible for her to become pregnant? does taking the morning after pill increase the risk of pregnancy?
I would appreciate your professional opinion.

regards,

EC not increase the risk of pregnancy.
