What Are The Chances Of Pregnancy Despite Having Nordette Pills?

Hello, my girlfriend and I had unprotected sex but I withdrew before ejaculation. As a precaution she took 4 Nordette pills 12 hours after the event and a second dosage of 4 pills 8 hours after the first dosage. Is it a problem that she took the second dosage before 12 hours?
