Hi,
I am on the overnette pill and have been for 6 months. I have taken 2 breaks so far, and for both i have had my period in the 3rd or 4th day of the break. This months I am on my 5th day of the break and I have had a very very light bleed so I thought it had come and about 10 hours later I had nothing anymore. This has never happened to me before. Could this mean I am pregnant?
Thankyou

Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum.
Having delayed and lighter period could be one of the symptoms of pregnancy. If you were regular on the pills, then pregnancy chances are less. There could also be a probability that after regular use of pills, the bleeding and symptoms have lightened, which is seen with few birth control use, they help with regulating periods and bleeding duration (both flow and duration). Consider visiting your gynecologist for examination and tests to look for the underlying cause.
Take care.
