Hello dear
Understand your concern
Yes in some case around 5 %, there may be chance of pregnancy as it has some failure rate. Bleeding after 7 days after taking pill is breakthrough bleeding due to high progesterone as a side effects of I pill
But I think chance of pregnancy is less as you had sex just after complete the period and it is safe period.
Since 2 months you did not get period, you have to consult the gynecologist to find the cause of delayed period.
First do home pregnancy test and or blood HCG and USG to rule out the pregnancy. In absence of pregnancy other causes are hormonal imbalance, ovarian cyst/PCOS, adenomyosis and thyroid disorder should be rule out.
In absence of pregnancy, period can be induced by progesterone injections in case of hormonal imbalance.
Take healthy diet and fresh fruits, avoid stress and do regular exercise.
Hope this may help you
