this month i am having a very light period normally i have to use a super tampon adn this month i am easily getting away with a light one. i take birth control and have been taking it for a year or longer now. i take my pill around the same time every night and have not missed one. i usually always use a condom also. this month at around the end of my first week of pills my bf and i decided to try having sex without a condom. it only was for a few minutes and he did not ejaculate inside me. could my light period mean i am pregnant? or what could be the reasons for this? normal?

Hi, Thanks for the query on health care magic platform. I have read & understood your query. If you have taken the oral contraceptives without having a break, this month.. there would be no chance of pregnancy with the unprotected sex you have mentioned.Condom you are using are not needed for contraception.. Yes, but use of condom is definitely helpful in avoiding STD. Oral contraceptives being hormones tend to cause change in bleeding pattern over the time.. your menses must have been affected by the hormones , showing lesser bleeding this time. Thanks.
