A member asked:
My period is so light not bleeding really mostly brown discharge im on the pill is this normal ?

Yes: The pill tends to keep the lining of the uterus minimal to impede implantation so the periods are "light". By the way, this is hormonally induced bleeding and not a "real period". It is designed by the pill manufacturer to remind you when to start your next pack of pills.
