Hi,

Spotting between periods should always be reported to your healthcare provider, because there are possible causes that are quite serious and need immediate treatment. I won't scare you with the details because it is equally possible that something completely benign is causing your spotting, but you still need to get it checked out. 

If you are on any kind of hormonal contraception, that is quite likely to lead to irregular vaginal bleeding, so that would be my first guess. In that case, there is nothing to be worried about. 

Anyway, make an appointment. This will put your mind at ease if nothing is wrong and ensure you can get treatment if there is something going on.

Birth Control Pills! If you are on them, you need to let your doctor know - as this is a sign of too much progesterone!

IF you aren't and have had unprotected sex since your period - this COULD be implantation bleeding! When you conceive SOME women experience spotting - which is from the embryo implanting into the lining of the uterus! IF the bleeding continues or becomes heavier, I would like you to see a doctor ASAP! As this can be a sign of an etopic pregnancy!!! So just keep an eye on it OK? And see what happens tommorrow! Don't be worried, Vaginal bleeding can happen to any woman at anytime - you can be as regular as clockwork for years and then wham! you have a wonky period or intermittant bleeding! You just have to rule out the wrong Pill OR the chance that you might be pregnant! Does this help?

no im not on Birth control of any kind I got up this morning with no bleeding my husband works off and is never at home i dont think im pregnant i did have unprotected sex with him while i was spotting when he came home. but he also pulled out like he dose all the time. but we went 4 weeks with out sex I feel movement like gas and stuff all the time I've gain 10 pounds witch is somthing for me i weigh 113 pounds now. how can i be pregnant if i have heavy bleeding during my real period. and yes you have helped out a lot thanks for you fast resonance back i just hope its not cancer At first i thought it might of been a cyst that ruptured and still could be but didn't think i would spot that much. I just hope the spotting is done and right now i have none

Hi penny! How old are you if you don't mind me asking? Also if you have had a regular period since you and your husband had unprotected sex then you wont be pregnant! HOWEVER depending on your age, you could be having symptoms of either PCOS or Perimenopause! Try not to jump to the thought of cancer OK? Ovarian cancer is VERY rare, and usually starts out with different symptoms then what you are experiencing! You ARE definitely having sympotoms of something wonky with your hormones however, so just let me know how old you are, also if you have had any problems with your period lately - such as delayed, heavier or lighter than usual!

HI Bambi! I am 25 years old. I do have Regular Periods until the last one i had and it hurt like c**p. I am still bleeding but is heavier now I talked to a MD and he said it could be spotting during my ovulation and has ruled out a epic Pregnancy I was sick a few weeks ago and was taking meds and he said that some med.s can cause bleeding too. I am going to go to the doctor to find out whats going on I have cyst all around my neck one under my tongue and one in my earlobe that is pea size and it hurts bad.

Hi penny! It sounds like you have a MAJOR viral infection, which could be causing all these problems too! When you say cyst, that means that ALL your lymph nodes are swollen - including the ones in your ear - so this is your bodies signal to you that you have an infection going on! How did your doctor rule out etopic pregnancy?

And all of my blood work came back fine and no infection she wants me to go to a doctor to get my cyst taking care of though said i would have to have them removed. Thank you so much for your help i really love this site.

I'm SO glad honey! Do you have to start on Sunday? Also know that you HAVE to use backup protection - condom for 1 whole cycle OK? Because it wont change your body - as far as BC until a month has gone by! I thought it might be your hormones, you should see a difference within the 1st week - as this is when you have the most hormones in the pill! Please keep me updated and also IF you have a cystic ovary just know that it doesn't mean you have to have it surgically removed OK?

yes i believe i do have to start it Sunday.... I dont think i have to worry about having sex my husband he works away from home and is gone for 6 more weeks he dose come home today and will be here tomarrow but he want be having sex with me because of whats going on. And if i do have a Cystic ovary the BC should Shrink it and make it go away they have done that before there was only one that they really have to remove and it was the size of a grape fruit the only one i want removed is the one in my earlobe if i dont go away with the BC im taking.
