Stopped the pill 5 months ago in preparation of getting pregnant.no period since until now,which i have now had lightly for 21 days?should i worry?

Not too much ....: It is not at all uncommon to have no period for several months after stopping the pill .... even 5 months. Getting some bleeding now is reassuring, even if it is a little long. I think you can continue to observe/watch. I would expect your period will now come about monthly for 7-10 days. But, see your doctor anyway, also for prenatal counseling! Good wishes:)
