What Causes Light Period Inspite Of Being On Birth Control Pills?

I have been experiencing cramps for almost a week after my period ended. My period was very light and only lasted one day and that night I started to take birth control. Could it be a side effect from the birth control? Or would it be related to something else such as pregnancy?

HI
Well come to HCM
This is not because of the pregnancy but this may be due to the hormone medicine, if this is missed period more than three weeks then pregnancy need to be ruled else this is not the pregnancy, hope this information helps, take care.
