How Long Can We Delay Periods And What Are The Chances Of Pregnancy?

hello,
i am a 24 YO married lady, i postponed my period using norethindrone acetate 5mg BID for 1 wk then TID for another week since i got spotting after the 1st week. I had my period after stopping the pills by one day.
My LMP was on 12 nov, usually my period comes regularly every 24 days, so now it is postponed by 5 days. I did my blood hCG twice, the first was zero on day 23, and the second was 2 on day 27. when
i have two questions please,
what is the maximum duration of delaying menses?
is there a chance of being pregnant, or my period was delayed because of the pills?
i appreciate your help
