Trying Pregnancy, Stopped Birth Control Pills, After Period Pink Spotting. Suggestion?

My husband and I recently decided to start trying for another baby so I stopped my birth control pills just 3 days ago. Had my period 4 days late in September and it only lasted a day enough for one tampon only. Usually it's 6 days long. Then about 4-5 days later I had one episode of pink spotting when I wiped once while using the restroom then nothing else. It is now October 4th and been three days since stopping the pill and when I used the restroom there was pink tint but not bleeding. What's going on??

Hello,

Do one home pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy as late period with one day period and less amount bleeding is quite significant.

Other reasons are hormonal imbalance, pelvic or vaginal infection, cervical polyp etc. Following test report, you can consult with gynecologist.
