Does Light Bleeding Signify Pregnancy?

Hello, I would like some advise. I had a bit of a pregnancy scare last week so I did two pregnancy tests, both were negative. My period started today but it seems odd. My flow is unusually light and only seems to flow strongly when I urinate. Should I do another test?

Dear member,
Thanks for writing to healthcare magic.
If you have your periods now and there is reasonable flow say 3 pads/ day for atleast 2-3 days then there in no need for concern.
As you have mentioned that 2 tests are negative there is no need to repeat the test if flow is regular.
if the bleeding is just like spotting then repeat the test after a week.
I hope this resolves your concerns.
please write back if you have any queries.
Thanks
