There is no need of taking emergency contraceptive pill when you are on regular contraceptive pills. In fact you disturb the amount of hormones. Anyways there is hardly any chance of pregnancy. But if you miss your period it's better to do a pregnancy test early.

There is no surety of these medications. But yes, they reduce the chances of getting pregnant to a great extent.
