Shortened period?

Hello ladies!

I do have a gynae appointment in a few days and will ask her but I’m anxious and want to ask now.

My periods for the last 3 months have been regular (every 29 days on the dot) however VERY short. For my last three periods I’ve bled properly for 1 day and then the 2nd day been LIGHTLY spotting and then completely finished. The first day is pretty much normal, bleeding normally and getting normal cramps but it literally lasts a day!

I got my contraceptive implant removed in September (which I had a 4 day period) and then this started in October. While on the implant (which I had for 2.5 years) I was pretty much regular but bled for around 6 days. Before the implant I was also very regular and bled for 4 days each time. Is this my body still trying to find it’s new natural cycle or should I be worried? (I also started a new pill this month also)
