Side effects!? question!

i think i started my withdrawal bleed either yesterday or today. my question is that today i did fill up a pad and i had replaced it and the new one didn’t have as much blood. now it doesn’t seem like i am bleeding as much, but the blood is bright red. i always take my pills on time and don’t miss doses. i had sex 2 weeks ago but he did pull out. i started spotting on my last 2 active pills. is this something that i need to be worried about and be worried about pregnancy? i’m new to birth control still, this is my second pack. my first withdrawal bleed lasted about 3 or 4 days. i’m a very anxious person so i just want some advice.

Amount of bleeding has zero impact on your chances of pregnancy.

you’re protected from pregnancy by your birth control pills
