I am on yasmine. I missed the first 2 pills in week 1 of my pill pack and then the 5th pill as well. For some reason I didn't give it much thought and my bf and I had unprotected sex. I am worried that I could/did ovulate. How likely is it? Should I be really concerned?

It's unlikely, but certainly possible.  Best thing to do is use a back up method of birth control if you miss your pills.  I agree with Yvette, take a test when you miss your period.  From your post it sounds like you may have missed one already?  If that is the case you can take one now.

You risk getting pregnant anytime you don't take your birth control pills properly.   Can't say for sure if you are or not, but maybe.    I would test the day that you expect your period and maybe a week later.
