A member asked:
If i start my period the exact same time and day i always do, does this mean i'm not pregnant? periods r getting lighter but i'm on birth control pill

Likely not pregnant: You are likely not pregnant due to the pill and regular periods. If in doubt, check. Lighter periods not a sign of pregnancy.
