Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. The duration and amount of flow is usually decreased when one is on oral contraceptives pills. The bleeding is reduced in quantity.
Thechances of pregnancy are extremely low, however I would suggest you to get a urine pregnancy test to confirm.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
