I am currently on the pill and i was supposed to start my period around this time last month. My periods are always regular and this time it was just a few days of spotting. So I took two pregnancy test and they both were negative. Now it's a few days before the time when my period should start and I'm having light brown orderless discharge. What could this mean? Is it possible that I am pregnant?

Please, someone help!!!

After I was on the pill for awhile, my periods changed from a normal period to a brown discharge for about 3 days and very light. It's normal.

Short and light periods are a pro of birth control pills. Smile

How long have you been on the pill? Have you been taking them correctly?
