If you've correctly been taking your
birthcontrol then you are protected even
while on your period. The chances of you
actually getting pregnant while on birth
control and during your period are
extremely small.
How long have you been on birthcontrol?

How long are you periods normally? Your
period gets lighter after you've been on
birth control for awhile. I've been on
birth control for six months now and my
period is only three days long so what you
had sounds like a normal period to me.
Yes, it's possible to get pregnant, but
given your circumstances it's highly
improbable. Just birth control alone is
99% effective and you're not ovulating
during your period.
If you're still nervous even when on birth
control, use condoms and birth control,
that way you'll be really safe

Having your period end early is not a sign
of pregnancy- and birth control might make
your period shorter over time, like Maddie
said.
Even if you had gotten pregnant while you
had sex on your period, it would have
taken two full weeks (not two days) for
anything to happen.

Continue taking your birth control.
The chances that you are pregnant are
really low. Like, less than 1%. And having
a short period doesn't mean anything.
If you are this worried about pregnancy,
perhaps in the future you should use
condoms as well as the pill.

If you are ever concerned, you can take a
pregnancy test two weeks after you had
sex.
