Hello,
In my opinion, though the 16th comes under an unsafe period, the chances of pregnancy are less as you have taken the morning-after pill. The pill is effective in 95% of cases. The light period can be due to hormonal imbalance created by the pill. But anyway confirmation is done by a urine pregnancy test. The test is done when your expected period missed. The test gives accurate results after a week of missed period. But as per your history, there is less scope for pregnancy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
