Hi,
Thanks for your question.
Symptoms you are having cannot confirm pregnancy. They are quite non-specific & can be seen in a number of conditions. You may exclude a pregnancy with 100% surety by doing a blood pregnancy test.
Use of birth control pills may reduce menstrual blood loss by about 50%, this may well be the reason of your reduced flow.
Take care.
