Is Pregnancy Possible Despite Taking Althea?

Hi,
I am on my first pack of Althea pills. I did not take it on my first day of menstrual bleeding since I am irregular and I haven't been getting my period for two months.

I was in the 11th day of taking Althea when my boyfriend and I had unprotected sex and he ejaculated inside of me. Can I still get pregnant with this?

Thank you!

Althea pills prevent ovulation and stops women from getting pregnant so you are protected from unwanted pregnancy.
