Can TriNessa birth control make you have a very light period or none at all?

Im taking TriNessa birth control and i was just wondering if the pills(or birth control pills in general) can make you have an extremely light periods or make you only have spotting or no period at all?
my last period was really light and normally my periods are extremely heavy and have been till my last couple of periods. this time, i just spotted a bit and there's light blood when i wipe when going to the restroom maybe its too soon to tell but its worrying me just a lil.
could it also be because i havent been very active in the last week?

When I was on the pill I had the same issue, I think it might just be the hormones in the pill that reduces your period to nothing, over a period of time.

When I was on bcp for a long time I had much lighter periods and then when I was using the injections depo provera my periods stopped all together. Best thing would be to call your prescribing doctor telling him about the change you are experiencing. Then you will have piece of mind that everything is ok.
