Unlikely: If she has been good about keeping up with her pill, the risk is minor.Cited failure rate of BCP is less than 5%/yr of use.

Minimal risk: BCP's are 99% effective in preventing pregnancy when taken consistently. Minimal risk for your GF becoming pregnant. Use condoms to reduce risk of STD transmission.
