Hi Anon,

Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community.

Some women have bleeding during ovulation, which occurs about midway between periods. Menstrual bleeding (a period) happens during the second drop in estrogen. In some women, the first estrogen drop appears to trigger bleeding, too, which is mid-cycle bleeding.

Since yours happen during the time you indicated as your ovulation time, and you have a negative pregnancy test, you can trust the test.

As a rule, it's always good to check with your doctor to make sure that the bleeding isn't being caused by something else.

I hope this helps,

Be well,
~Gillette
