Spotting after years on combined pill?

Hi there! Looking for some advice or learn if anyone went through something similar.

I’ve been on the combined pill for 5 years. However the last 2 months I had light spotting mid cycle. This also happened about 16 months ago and I went for a pap test which was normal. I have just went for a pelvic ultrasound which was also normal. Has anyone else had any similar experiences? Not sure if I should push for another Pap test or accept that maybe it’s my birth control? I've been super anxious!
Have you had a covid vaccine in the last few months? A lot of people have found their cycle went doolally with heavy cycles/spotting etc common after a vaccine before settling back down.
