My period has been pretty regular since 2006 coming every 25-28 days. It usually lasts 7 days and is very heavy and dark red. My last two periods were different, one lasting 5days with brown spotting and the most recent was light pink and heavy but only lasted two days.

2 days after my period and i'm cramping with light spotting?
what does it mean really?
i have an irregular period, but the last couple of months i have had my period 9 days straight.
this weekend though Saturday was the 9Th day, and i had sex until yesterday. so from july 14Th to july 16th i had sex, yes he came inside me.. we are trying to conceive.
the thing is, the next morning including today i wake up feeling nauseus, cramps on one side of my abdomen and even more sleepyer. which doesn't make sense cause how could i ''be prego'' that quick?
i did have light pink blood come out the past two days, but i'm just thinking it was leftover blood?
i know that you're supposed to have sex during ovulation, but i was just trying to understand why i am feeling the way i do?
any help?

My husband and I have been trying to conceive close to two years now. Around February, I started on clomiphene (if thats the correct spelling) but only did three rounds and stopped bc nothing was happening. I have not taken it in 3 months (July being the third month). My periods have always been regular every 28 days. However, last month, 4-5 days after my period my husband and I had sex. The next morning, I was spotting very lighting pinkish blood that day only, this has never happen before. I attributed this to our escapades the night before. However, a week and half before my period I began to experience all day nausea, and heaviness in the bottom of my belly. This week (Thursday, July 12) my period came right on schedule, however, my first day is normally light with dark red bleeding. This time it is bright red and very very heavy and accompanied by major cramps. While I have always had severe cramps, all of this is seems so different from my past periods. Any ideas what could be going with me, I justed turned 27 on the 15th June.

Hi Anpnymous,

Your period cycle does not seem that uncommon as mine period is pretty similar and I do not have cysts. If you do have ruptures of your cysts, this certainly can cause vaginal bleeding when they erupt. If you have concerns, see your physician.

I hope this helps.

As for myself, I am 39 year old with a 25 day cycle. Spotting for the first day, a regular flow the second and third days, and ending with spotting for the final two days. Last month and this month I have started my periods with light pink drainage and cramping. I have had right sided ovation cysts that have ruptured and wonder if there is any correlation...
