i have had sex many times with this guy then 2 months ago i went on the pill and a week ago we had sex for the first time since i have been on it since were in college we dont see each other muchh.. but after we had sex this time i went to the bathroom and saw that i was bleeding a tinyyy bit.. this was on sunday and its now wednesday and accordint to my birth contol im supposed to get my period today. but on sunday when it had that tiny bleeding it has been super super light like theres hardly any but it was like that on monday and tuesday and still today with a tinyyyyyy bit of bleeding but not much at all and i have reaaallyy bad cramps. i have neeverr bled before from sex so im worried as to why i am now. could it just be my period coming a couple days sooner even tho i am on the pill but why is it this light. theres almost nothing.. but theres still a little blood? im confused and worried! i dont know if the birth control is just making my period now this light!? or if just being on birth control is the reason i bled this time!? idkk if this is just spotting which is a common side effect of birth control and that it could be a coincidence that it started right after i had sex or what exactly!?

As long as you are taking your birth control pills correctly & consistently, the likelihood of becoming pregnant is very low. It can take your body 1 to 4 months to become adjusted to being on the pills. During this time, you may experience some irregular spotting. This should go away as you remain on the pill.

One of the benefits of taking the birth control pills is that it shortens and lightens your period. Yes, bleeding may be very, very light. It may last 1 to 7 days. Bleeding may vary from month to month. Any bleeding/spotting during your hormone free pill days (placebos) is considered a period. Most birth control pills should also decrease the severity of cramping.

If your lack of bleeding concerns you, or your cramping is not improved on the pill, consult with your doctor. You may need a pill change to bring about the results you want.
