Being on a birth control pill for some time may lead to your period to be very light, or even no bleeding at all.

Meanwhile you can try this: If it is accompanied by a white thick discharge it could be yeast and an over the counter anti fungal cream designed for this region would work. If it is something that happened after shaving cortisone cream would work for that.
