Thank you for query.Pregnancy depends on timing of ovulation and intercourse.safe period for intercourse is before 9th day and after 21st of menstrual cycle if regular cycles.if you had intercourse in this you are safe.You are totally safe ovulation occurs only around 14 days prior to next period.So allay the fear and continue the regular oral pills if you are likely to have intercourse again.You can also use protectives like condoms also which has protection against STDs.Dr Bharatesh
