What Causes Blood In Stools After Taking Ortho Cyclen?

Hi, I just started taking ortho cyclen. I am a few days into it. I am 25. I have read there could be light side effects and serious side effects. Well, I have noticed that there is a little blood along the feces. Not all over it, just a streak down the side each time as though it is coming from a certain spot. It is lessening now, but I am curious about it. Also, I have started working out lately (didn't have as much of a chance to work out the last year) so I don't know if it is from working out or taking the pill. If it is from the pill, then is it considered a light or a serious side effect? Thank you!
