Hormones: Your hormones can vary over time and it is possible you did not ovulate well for the previous cycle. Another possibility is pregnancy so you should do a home pregnancy test if there is any chance you are pregnant.

Do pregnancy test: Light period may mean pregnancy or it may mean nothing worth worrying about hormone changes stress can cause period fluctuations.
