A member asked:
I started a new birth control 2months ago my period has not came but one day it was just light blood then no more. was that my period?

Possible: If no period on the pill the first couple cycles then consider pregnancy as a possible reason. Having said that, one of the nice effects of the pill is shorter, lighter or absent periods and this is perfectly healthy. You don't need a period when on the pill.
