On birth control for 4 months am I okay?

I have been on levora birth control for four months now and my boyfriend and I had unprotected sex two days in a row and he finished inside of me, we usually don't do that. However, now I'm getting nervous because I hear that levora is a low dose pill and they are easy to get pregnant on.. I usually take it at 8 am sometimes I'm an hour late but usually I always take it at 8. I'm on the third week of my pack so I should be starting my period next week. I just need some peace of mind because I'm really nervous.

you should be perfectly fine providing you've been taking your pill correctly as you say you have been :) the "dosage" of pills isn't anything to worry about, they all work in the same way - preventing ovulation, thinning the womb lining to make it harder for an embryo to attach, and thickening the mucus so sperm can't get past the cervix as easily. it seems to me that levora isn't a "low dose" - it's simply that it contains 0.15g of levonorgestrel, which is used in the morning after pill/emergency contraceptive pill at a higher dosage.
