Ocps: Is this your first pill pack? Did you take all your pills as instructed? Same time and everyday? If you took them correctly the likelihood of pregnancy is very low. Despite the use of OCPs the use of condoms is also encouraged. Are you in a longstanding, committed relationship? If not then definitely condoms should be used.
