I recently missed 2 bc pills and not thinking took 3 at one time. i spotted, bled heavy for 1 day, and still have been lightly bleeding for 4 days? my period is due in about 5 days. is this possibly implantation? or did i mess up my hormones?

Hormonal imbalance: If you miss your period by 4-5 days, do a home pregnancy test. Menstrual irregularities are not uncommon and anovulatory cycle is a common cause. If you miss more than two periods it would be time to see your doctor. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time. You may consider implanted contraceptive or an IUD.
