What Causes The Delay In Periods With Only Light Spotting?

Hi I had a c section 2 and a half years ago. I was put on birth control alesse in October 2012 and at that time my periods were super heavy. Well I was on it one month and my period was lighter. Went off for a few weeks and back on it again had a ball of like sticky mucus and still got a light period. Stopped it after a month. Started again and stopped it in Jan 2013. Well Jan 31st I was suppose to have a period and never did. Didn t get another period since then. I had a pap test a couple of months ago tested for canges in my cervix and vagina and the bacteria as well as cervical cancer and it all came back clear. I am pretty obese and I changed my eating habits, started eating really healthy and am on a calorie cutting diet for weight loss. Well when I urinate and wipe myself it is light brown to pink. And it stopped for a few days but has come back. Pregnancy test was negative and the doctor doesn t seem worried. What do you think but could be?

It is not a matter of worry and will subside by itself. But try to be regular on pills and if not compliant to the same switch to other contraceptive.. Also do a pregnancy test after 5 days. Light periods are comm on while on pills. Still consult your gynaecologist if u don't get your periods or if it repeat s in next cycle. Take care..
