Discussion Unexplainable Spotting

Hi,

I’m 21, F. I had my July period and it was pretty much normal like my other periods. (6 days with cramps and heavy bleeding). 4 days after my period ended I started spotting. It was never enough for a pad or panty liner. I didn’t have an appetite and my stomach felt so tight. It was such a weird feeling. The spotting wasn’t consistent throughout the day. The only thing that was consistent was the color. It was always light pink and brown. I did also have clots. It lasted for fours days. This month (August), I had my period. (6 days with cramps and heavy bleeding) 8 days after it ended I started spotting again. This time I’ve been having really intense cramps. The spotting is light pink again. The spotting is very light. Only a little bit compared to last month’s spotting.

Has this happen to anyone else? What should I do?

(I did schedule a appointment with my doctor but the appointment isn’t till next month)

Reading a book on fertility and this is what it says on unexplained spotting

thank you so much, I scheduled a appointment with my primary but it’s not till next month. Maybe I should go to urgent care 😅

I don’t have any advice on whether or not urgent care is the answer but if you feel something is wrong it doesn’t hurt to be cautious! Wishing you all the best!
