period change/stress and sex?

Hello, Im hoping someone will have some insight on whats going on with my body.

Let me start with I have been on OTC-lo for the past 2 years 10 months. I went on it initially because my periods were very irregular and frequent, and was essentially on my period more days a month than i was not.

Every month my period would start on the Thursday of my placebo week and be EXTREMELY HEAVY and last until Tuesday. There has never been anything different. And I had never had a light period.

I lost my virginity at the beginning of this year, but did not start having sex frequently until August.
September I started a new semester at college, which has added a lot of stress with work as well.

Ever since I started having sex frequently, my periods have been a LOT lighter. They use to be super heavy... Heavy ++ and now they are anywhere from light to medium/light.

I dont think I could be pregnant because I use 3 forms of protection and I am still getting a period, though it is much lighter. The only thing that worries me a little is that I have heard of pregnant woman having spotting which they have mistaken for their periods. But then I dont know how I would have gotten pregnant since I am very safe about it, so I really dont think its that.

But it makes me nervous because ever since I have started having sex, my period is a LOT lighter. I dont know if its the sex or the stress?

Does anyone know why this is happening? Thanks for the help!
