Just started birth control. Can I be pregnant? Should I take plan b?

Hi, I recently just started birth control. I've tried to read about the 7 day rule and I'm a little confused. On the 7th day of me being on birth control I took my 7th pill that night. About 2 hours or so later I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend. He did not *** inside me however I'm just worried about pre *** or something. Could I be pregnant? Do I need to take plan b? I've been taking my pills at the same time every night and haven't missed one. However one night I did take one 45 mins after the usual time I take it.

So based on my situation considering he didn't *** either, more than likely I'll be okay because I got in my 7 days of birth control?

Technically after 7 days you should be protected.

My doctor always told me to never take plan b while already on the pill because it will mess up the schedule and it is basically ab extremely high dose of what's already in your pill so the chance of the more deadly side effects like blood clots and dvt's increases exponentially. The plan b is meant for women who are not on any birth control and have an accident like a condom break.

If it were me I would never take plan b while already on the pill because my doctor warned me about the risks. Plus she had a few patients who ended up with serious problems. So that's why I would never do it myself.
