Time and technique: A good time to do home pregnancy test is 4-5 days after a missed period. Use first morning urine and follow the instructions in the kit carefully. If you had a period, you are not likely to be pregnant.

No, if it was your: Actual period then you are not pregnant. The main reason for light periods is a change in hormone levels. Causes for what seems to be a light period can include: thyroid problems, eating disorders, excessive exercise, initial periods for a girl, use of an intrauterine device, oral contraceptives, perimenopause ; implantation bleeding in early pregnancy which rarely occurs.
