A member asked:
Can extremely light spotting (like very light pink on toilet paper only) for 48-72 hours around the time period is due be considered a period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: If you are on bcps this is not unusual at all. And if not, it can happen. However check with your gyn to make sure there are no other issues like pregnancy.
