Hi Anon,

Thanks for posting. You may have had ovulation spotting. There are a couple of thoughts on what causes ovulation spotting. Some people believe that the light spotting is a result of the egg rupturing through the follicle during ovulation. It is thought that as the egg bursts from the follicle that a little bleeding may occur. This is why some women may notice brown spotting, which is generally an indicator of older blood, around the time they ovulate. The blood may turn brown as it exits the body. Ovulation spotting can occur right before ovulation or during. 

If you have a 33-35 day cycle, it is way too early to test for pregnancy-- you should really be waiting until your next period is late. 

I hope this helps clarify what you likely experienced. 

Best Wishes!

Rosa
