Started my new pack of lessina pills i am bleeding light due to my period ending if i had sex would i be safe or do i have to wait a week ?

Depends on details: A woman on birth control pills, taking them properly, and beyond her first pack of pills... has no fertile day and has no fertile week. That means she has protection against pregnancy every day, regardless of where she is in her pill pack. Also, because Lessina is a combination pill (2 hormones), 1-3 hours variation in daily dosing time makes no noticeable difference in its effectiveness.
