Effects of pill or just hormones on period…

I’ve just started taking Microgynon again after a long time off contraception. For context since reaching 39 my periods have typically been been 3/4 days of very light bleeding and then 2 days really heavy, then a day or two light again.
I started my pill on the second day I started light bleeding but I am now on day 5 of really light. Normally by now I’d be well into it but it just doesn’t seem to be happening.

I’m wondering if this is to do with the fact I’m now 4 days into taking the pill or if it’s more likely that it’s just the joys of being on the cusp/in perimenopause.

Has anyone else had this experience? I’m not worried but just don’t really know what’s going on…
