Answers:
First of all if u didnt miss any pills then u dont have to worry at all !. And that spotting light flow thing is your period !. I've had that many times before !. Some pills makes the bleeding very slow and less !. Mine for example were like that !. It would only be 3 days at the most !. Really relax !. There is nothing to worry about !. But to make sure see a doctor !. Ps!. That cramping can only be your period !.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It is highly normal to have irregular bleeding even while being on the "sugar pill" part of your BC rather than the placebo!. In many cases since you are creating a cycle for your body rather than allowing it to do it on it's own, it's the "sugar pills" that are the ones that stop your period right after you have finished the week with the placebos!. I have bled even 2 weeks into a new pack, and you did mention that you have only truly been on the pill for 4 weeks or less since you had unprotected sex!. Don't worry you are not pregnant, and if you fear you are, then stop taking the pill immediately and go to your doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you've been following a schedule taking the pills on time, I'm sure you're fine!. It's not unusual to have spotting or light periods when you're on birth control!.

To put your mind at ease, I would suggest taking a pregnancy test if you're worried!. If you've been good about taking the pills at the same time every day, you should be fine!. But this way you can put an end to your worrying!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Taking the pill does tend to lighten the flow of a period, so if you had fairly light periods to start with being on bc may mean they are even lighter and shorter!. Mine substantially lessened, although I had quite heavy periods to start with!. Since this is only your second pack you may still be adjusting!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I never had that problem, I used a different bc pill but I know that if your period is not "normal" and is spotting or very light!.!.!.you could be pregnant!. Or it could just be a change in your body!.!.!.talk with the doctor that prescribed them to you for the best advice!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

As a male, Im sure it doesn't mean much!. Any girlfriend I have had in the past has had the same issue!. So I wouldn't call it a problem!. If you are ever are really worried you should always see a doctor!.

Stay strapped though!. Use a condom!. STD would not be worth that extra feeling!.!.!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

As long as you have not missed any pills and you are bleeding some, there is nothing to worry about!. The hormones from the pills can affect your period from time to timeWww@Answer-Health@Com

Take it easy, it can take a few months to get regulated with the pill/your body cycle!.

Just remember birth control is only 99% effective, so you can still get pregnant!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

The pill can cause you to have lighter periods!.

And your intercourse wasn't completely unprotected, you were on the pill!. It was just unprotected from STD's!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
