Just started taking Tri-Sprintec, and the first pill on the second week I took about three hours late. And during those three hours I had unprotected sex... Is there a big possibility I could be pregnant???
Three hours late to take a pill, and had sex during those three hours... Pregnant?

If you had taken all the active tablets, in week one, properly on time... then you should be okay if you took the 1 pill of the 2nd week three hours late. Some doctors do however suggest that you take extra precaution for the first month when you start a new birth control pill.
If you miss a pill please follow this to reduce the risks.
What happens if I miss a dose?
Missing a pill increases your risk of becoming pregnant.
If you miss one "active" pill, take two pills on the day that you remember. Then take one pill per day for the rest of the pack.
If you miss two "active" pills in a row in week one or two, take two pills per day for two days in a row. Then take one pill per day for the rest of the pack. Use back-up birth control for at least 7 days following the missed pills.
