hello
chances of pregnancy r high in ur case as
- u have been sexually active
- ur periods this time were 9 days later this time
- ur periods this time were lighter than usual

ur should have urine pregnancy test with first morning urine sample

if Upt is negative still u should repeat upt after 5 to 7 days

if Upt is weakly positive u need urgent gynaecological check up to rule out ectopic pregnancy with bhcg & ultrasound as spotting is common in ectopic pregnancy

if Upt is strongly positive u still need ultrasound for fetal well being to check fetal viability

hope this helps you
