I went out of town in the first week of my pills (I've been on them for several years) and forgot to bring them with me. When I got home I'd missed 3 pills so I took 2 pills a day until I was back on schedule. I started taking them again Saturday (I'm a Sunday starter) and Sunday morning had sex with my boyfriend without a condom. I missed a few more pills this past month too but used a condom every other time I had sex that month. At the end of this past month when my pack was up and my period was due I never got it. I had one day of really light spotting but it never went beyond that. What are the chances that I might be pregnant?

Yuo did well in taking 2 pills a day until you became caught up, that is what women are usually encouraged to do.

BUT... You still need back-up for 7 full days after you start taking the pills to get caught up.

Yes, you were at some risk of pregnancy, but exactly how much cannot be known. Take a preganncy test, it will be accurate.

How long after sex does implantation occur? I had sex on Nov 26 and on Dec 14 (18 days) I had some light bleeding and cramps for a few days after that (14th was a Thurs, cramps Fri-Sun til I started my next pack of pills). Could that have been due to implantation?

Fertilization takes 2-3 days, implantation takes upwards of 8-10 days.

Only about 1/3 of women will expereince implant bleeding, it is not considered 'typical'.
