705947 tn?1228849793 Why am I spotting brown between my periods? I think I might be having a miscarrige. I was 55 days late last month but I had a 4 day period and now 16 days after my last period Im spotting brown.
Avatar f tn I'm 28, sexually active. No birth control pills. During the middle of Janurary to Feburary of this year I bled each day, enough to fill a pantiliner about a half a day. I was scheduled to go to an OBGYN but was cancelled and pushed back another month due to weather. I stopped bleeding from the middle of Feburary and had a heavier than normal period but then stopped. Tonight I started spotting again. I have had 2 negative pregnancy tests.
1703515 tn?1350500231 Hi there, Usually a woman will experience her period during the one-week break and bleeding may still be there when it is time to put on another patch. This is quite normal. Bleeding between your periods and spotting is common with birth control patch. Bleeding while on the patch should be discussed with your doctor. A clinical evaluation may be necessary. Keep me posted. Best luck and regards!
Avatar f tn I have vaginal bleeding and spotting in between periods. Its been going on for over 3 years. My gyno doctor just keeps changing my birth control pills. I'm very frustrated at this point. Is this something that you experienced?
Avatar f tn I'm on neplaxonon for about half a year. My periods are so unsual. Sometimes I can have 2 month or 3 month with no period then I'll have 10 of spotting 5 days or so of period and another 10 days of spotting. Is it normal with birth control or I should get this checked ?
Avatar n tn My periods have never been irregular and I have been tracking them religiously for the past 6 months and now, this month I recently started my period on December 8th (five days later then normal) and it ended on the 12th. I had unprotected sex with my husband on the 11th. Went three days without a period and started spotting again on the 16th. It's not heavy and started as clear mucus with bright red streaks and then spotting more with activity.
Avatar f tn These can all caused irregularities to your periods and irregular spotting. Are you on birth control, if so have you missed any pills or anything? Doing this can also cause what you're experiencing.
Avatar f tn I loved my IUD. I had horrible painful periods and my periods decreased to just spotting with no cramping.
Avatar f tn I have never missed a period and have never been pregnant. I have been married for 4 years and am not on any kind of birth control. My last period started on Mar 12 and since Wed, April 1 I have been spotting brown "stuff." I don't usually see it until I go to wipe myself after using the bathroom. I am not due for my period for another 2 weeks. I did go to the Dr. today and she told me that it's not really a big concern and the urine sample came back (-) for pregnancy.
Avatar f tn When I had irregular periods I went on the birth control pill long enough to straighten out my periods.
Avatar n tn you should and would have gotten a postive pregnancy test by now you dont really understand how conception works. if your going to be having sex...you should think about birth control as well as condoms because the condom broke and theres no point in worrying yourself like this..
Avatar f tn I am a 20-year-old female. About 7 months ago, I began spotting between periods. It would happen once or twice a month, in the middle of my menstrual cycle, and would last 2-3 days. The blood was light brown in color. After this happened a couple times, I went to see a gynecologist. 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.
Avatar f tn Bleeding in between periods can happen as you adjust to a new birth control, but to me, this sounds like a bigger issue then that- since you are on the third pack and you had the same issue with another hormonal birth control option. Have you called your doctor to let them know the abnormal bleeding is still going on? There are other non-hormonal options or light hormone options that you and your doctor could discuss trying instead- to see if that helps.
Avatar f tn I have had periods 9 years now and been on birth control for 2 years (i am 21) so I do not understand what could be going on. I recently switched brands of contraception to my old one (i was on a different brand for 6 months but according to my doctor it was exactly the same drug). I have only had one sexual partner and he has only been with me so it wouldn't be an STD. I never forget to take my pill and I always use a condom as well to make sure.
Avatar n tn Please discuss this with your doctor. I am assuming you are not on birth control pills, if you are, are you taking them at the same time each day? Also, make sure that your doctor has checked your thyroid levels because low levels can sometimes cause spotting.
Avatar f tn Hello, This pinkish spotting can be due to implantation spotting or intermenstrual spotting. Main causes of spotting between periods could be due to pregnancy, birth control pills, infection in an area of the body related to menstruation (including the vagina, the cervix and even the bladder). Other causes could be polycystic ovarian syndrome, diseases of pituitary gland, hormonal imbalance of estrogen and progesterone and uterine abnormalities like fibroid and cervical dysplasia.
Avatar n tn During pregnancy it is possible to spot a little or even have period like bleeding. Or are you on a low hormone birth control? Sometimes a lower hormone bc can cause spotting in between periods. Either way it's unusual and you probably should see a doctor. If you aren't pregnant you really shouldn't be spotting in between periods or missing them. If you are pregnant, you really shouldn't be spotting at all.
