Ok, so I've been on Levora since December now and have always taken it diligently at 7:30 am but lately I've been so busy at school and work I have been forgetting until 9:30pm or later. I wasn't too concerned because it wasn't consecutively and all I read on missed pills says that you really shouldn't need back up unless you miss more than one.

I would say I've been 12-24 hrs late on maybe 3-5 pills in this pack and we have not used back up contraception. We've had unprotected sex 2-3 times a week during the 2nd and 3rd week of this pack.

Before I was on Levora, I was on Depo-provera, which, according to my reading, can stay in your system for a long time and make it hard to get pregnant anyway.

All this considered, should I be concerned? How great is my risk? I still have about a week until my placebo pills and my period, but, again, according to my reading, not even that is all that reliable a method.

Also, I've been having cramps in my abdomen and lower back and the place where I think my ovaries would be feels tightish. I have also had headaches. I do tend to get paranoid and imagine things, and since I'm sure it'd be too early to experience any symptoms, my imagination is probably the culprit but any insight would be appreciated.
