How likely is it for me to be pregnant if ive missed a pill during the week i ovulated and took plan b after 72 hrs. im having mild bleeding and cramp?

Hard to say exactly : But suboptimal birth control use has about a 10% failure rate and even after 72 hours (in the range of 72 - 120 hour range) is about 72-87% effective. So overall your chances of being pregnant are quite low but still possible.
