I too have the same problem... a week long period, nothing for the following week and then the spotting starts and continues till I get my next period (basically 3 weeks of bleeding/spotting out of the month). Unlike many others who have posted about this problem, I've only had it the last couple of months.

My problems started after I miscarried and had a D&C in October. I've had severe bloating every cycle since (I look 5 mths pregnant and can only wear maternity clothes a week prior to my period) and then this mid cycle spotting started two cycles ago. I usually have a very regular 27 day cycle and a period that lasts 5 days with no mid cycle spotting EVER! So I'm really concerned this has started happening... I do suffer from endometriosis but have never had these symptoms since discovering I had the disease 8 years ago.

I had a transvaginal ultrasound today and some blood taken to check my hormones. I asked the sonographer if she could see anything suspect, but all she told me was the lining of my uterus was thick and had fluid in it (everything else looked normal). I'll find out more in 5 days time when I see my GP again. I'm hoping he can diagnose this problem so I can go back to being my normal self again and hopefully help others that might have the same thing.
