Brief Answer:
Negligible

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.

Chances are negligible since tests are almost 99% accurate today and contraceptive pills are very efficient. So, I don't think that pregnancy is possible.

However, to be 100% sure, another test should be done at 6-8weeks or she should visit the gynecologist.

Wish you good health.
Regards
