I missed three days of my pill the week after my period. Had unprotected sex two out of those three days. Started bleeding like a period again. Am I pregnant? If not, any ideas as to why I'm bleeding again so soon?

You are bleeding again because your body is withdrawing from not taking the pills. Just like during the week of taking inavtive pills, your body is actually not having a true period when you are using the pill, it is actually withdrawal bleeding. (women do not have actual periods while on the pill, as the pill works to prevent ovulation, and you must ovulate to have a period). I can explain this further if you are interested.
You do have a chance of pregnancy, however, since you missed so many pills in a row.
