What's happening?
Last month, when I had my "period" is was very light and kept going on and off. Some days didn't even come and only bad light pink when I wiped. It came a day later than usual last month and ended very soon. It was for like 3 days. This month my period came a day late again. It was definitely a period by the looks of it but only last for 3 days. Now it completely stopped and sometimes have light pink when I wipe but rarely. I have been on the pill for many years and never had irregularity. Could I be pregnant? Has anyone had this and what did they figure out?

Hi Olheif,
Since when are you off the pill? Maybe your body is still getting used to life without it. ;)
A period that lasts three days and is only one day late sounds pretty regular to me.
I have been on the pill for more than ten years, and it took my body about a year to get back to a "normal" cycle. (i had everything from light to heavy periods, cycle length between 30 and 60 days etc)
I think it is very rare to be pregnant and still get your period.
But you can still test if you are unsure. :)
All the best,
Romy

Ah ok, then i misunderstood.
In my last year on the pill my period also changed. In my case it was not a real period anymore, only some spotting for a few days.
Sometimes i didn't show up altogether.
My gynecologist told me this could happen after a long time on the pill and suggested that i switch to another pill. (i then stopped taking it altogether)
