Missed pill 2 days after intercourse

[Paris]

Hey!

I have been worrying for the past week. Ten days ago (i.e. on the 2nd August) I had a slight intercourse. There was no ejaculation but I'm not sure if there was any pre-cum. I'm worried about sperm presence in pre-cum. I'm actually on the pill and have been taking it since May 2015. From the 7th July 2016 till now I have been using it continuously so no withdrawal bleeding last month. The problem is that I forgot to take the pill on the 4th August, but then took it on the 5th (last Friday) together with the one I had to take that day : I took 2 pills that day. Which means I took the pill more than 48 hours late. Last Friday I did an ultrasound but no follicles and ovulation were detected. However on Saturday I had breakthrough bleeding. Do you think the effectiveness of the pill was compromised? Do you think I have a pregnancy risk? I continued to take the pill normally and avoided intercourse for the past 9 days. I'm very worried
