I was on birth control but then was off it for about 2-3 weeks. During those 2-3 weeks my husband and I had intercourse. I started taking the pill again about 2 weeks ago and I was supposed to start my period last week. I started bleeding a very small amount yesterday but it stopped today. Could I be pregnant?

Yes of course. You can always get pregnant. It's just a matter of probability. Extremely low if you take each pill on time, and then a bit higher and higher as you skip pills. And you can bleed when pregnant too.

Should I take a pregnancy test?

Yes, I would take a pregnancy test.

Even on the pills, they are not 100 percent so you can always get pregnant, when you don't take them, it increases the chances greatly

Yes,take a HPT. It may be off because you were on the pill, off, then on again. That can really mess with your cycle. I know because I was on birth control for 7 years. I've experienced a lot. I would take a test, if positive, CONGRATS if negative, wait a week or 2 take another, if still negative and no period, go see your doctor. He may suggest a blood test. Good luck!
