Q: Necon 1/35 - is period light and short or am I pregnant

ok so a few months ago i started my period and it was still going three months later so i went to the doctor. they put me on the pill and ive been on three or 4 since then due to the fact that they either didnt work or did work and then id just start bleeding and not stop. ive been on necon 1/35 for my first month last month everything was fine. i got to the reminder pills and i had my period ...kinda..it was like two to three days at the most and it was only red like one day not heavy either but it was there. i spotted for the three or so days after. ive taken two negative pregnancy tests. could i be pregnant or is the pill just that strong to where my period is that light and short because never in my life have i had one that light or short and its kinda scary especially since im very sexually active. i use condoms everytime. someone please help im confused and starting to get scared.

ps. when i first started on these pills it took about two weeks for them to start working and an the condom did slip back one time so i was worried about something happening so i went to planned parenthood and got plan B an took it that day and the doctor had me restart my pills with a new pack a week and a half into my pack. can this be a factor in my problem? or should i still be worried?

Id really appreciate any advice i can get.
thanks.

It is very common for your periods to be shorter and lighter or go away completely while on the pill. That is actually one of the most desireable side effects.

well...i kinda use my period as a way to make sure that im not pregnant. i have alot of friends whos parents were using multiple forms of birth control and they got pregnant thats why im worrying. one of my friends said she didnt find out till she was 4 months and she had to have a blood test and she mentioned something about how not everyones body chemicals work right with pregnancy tests sometimes u have to do it by bloodtests. if its just a a effect from the pill ..wat would make it cause for concern that i could be pregnant??
