I ,too, have alot of spotting with discharge between my cycles. I do have a cyst on my left ovary associated with pcos. I'm am on metformin. I know they cause irregular bleeding.

Not taking a pill either.

When I described it to her, she said it was normal and that it was because I was ovulating, and that it may have been caused by stress.
