I’m confused and wonder if you could lend some advice or your own thoughts on the differences that you have experienced on this topic.
I have regular cycles around 27 days (sometimes 26). My menstruation typically starts light and is super heavy the second day (red in color). It typically lasts 4-5 days. On day 12 of my cycle I have a positive OFK and subsequently had intercourse. I either ovulated on day 13 or 14 so today would be around CD 11. Yesterday morning, I started with a very bright colored blood and then experienced nothing until later in the afternoon. Later it was more and I had some cramping. I used a tampon b/c I did not have pads. That night it was only on one side. Two different times I had a drop on my underwear. Overnight it did not fill half the tampon. Today was the same thing. In fact after six hours and then checking the tampon, it was filled about half way, but my guess is that it was not soaked all the way through. The color is not the same as usual, but it seems like I shouldn’t have that much blood b/c what I read says “spotting”. Typically, today I would be really heavy and it is about half that. It is also three or four days prior to my period so I am confused. It feels like a period, but I am unsure because of the bright color and amount. Any thoughts? Thanks!

My last period started on Xmas day, i missed a period in january and then was due on on the 19th of febuary but didnt come on. 6 days after i was due on i went onto the bathroom and there was blood, very red and it appeared to be the start pf my period it looked like quite alot of blood so i used a tampon went to bed but when i woke up there was no blood on the tampon! Ive had slight cramping but it comes and goes, I have had really bad backache for a few days! It's been just ova 8 weeks since my last proper period. Has anyone ever heard of this before? Is it normal? Is there a possibility Im pregnant? Im stumped, Im usually regular but I don't really know what to think so if anyone can help or give some advice id very much appreciate it!!

if any of you ladies are expierncing really bad lower pains and non normal bleeding,i would test to see what it tells me,if your not to sure on to believe it if it is negative then get blood word ASAP,some of you could be pregnant and those really bad lower pains could be a sign of a tubal pregnacy,i know this because i went through this myself in july of 2014!!

I ovulated on the 24th of December, and had sex with my husband 2 or 3 days before my ovulation, I had pregnancy symptoms and was bleeding 2 days to my next menses, I'm confused if it could be implantation bleeding or period
