I am experiencing the same thing. Its now my second month that its been this way. I have no idea what this could be and the doctors don't say much about it but when you do go to the doctors make sure you explain everything to them and see what they can do.

Go see a doctor

Maybe youve cut yourself also I find if your on the pill peroids can come when you really dont expect them.

If your not in any major pain then I would suggets you get an emergancy appoitment with your doctor in the morning if you start getting seriuos pain then call and ambulance as you may be miscarring.

Good luck hope your ok

i cant really help u with this. but i had it once. I had my period and then like a week later i got it back now i get it every week for 3 days. meds dont even help with this.

if youre on the pill and miss a day or two it could be your body thinking it needs to start a period. And it will. Ive had two periods in one month before because my my birthcontrol.

It has nothing to do with being pregnant. Dont worry. Ive been pregnant before too.

the only thing you can do is see i doctor

you don't need to see a doctor IMMEDIATELY (like as in, not right this minute) but honestly, that part of your body is sensitive, easily prone to infections and other disorders which can cause lasting results on important issues like your fertility. If the bleeding stops and doesn't come back, it might just be your body getting rid of something, and I wouldn't worry. However, if the bleeding continues and/or its accompanied by pain, see a doctor as soon as possible. I also wouldn't guess by your symptoms that you are pregnant, so try to relax.
good luck

1) where exactly is this blood coming from? is it coming from your vagina or from your bladder? if it's from your bladder it is probably an infection of some sort.

2) you say you use a lot of protection. if you're on the pill and have skipped one out or taken one too many since your last period, then this could be a breakthrough bleed which happens commonly if you mess up the timing of your pill

3) have you taken the morning after pill recently? this more than always causes a breakthrough bleed

4) maybe your man is a bit too vigorous and you could have had a little injury during the throes of passion

it's hard to say what this could be. it's more than likely a breakthrough bleed so i wouldn't worry. but if it gets heavier or continues tomorrow you may want to see your doctor to put your mind at ease x

It could be your period, it's happened to me - it could just be a very disrupted cycle.
Try to work out whether the blood is coming from your vagina or your bladder. If it's from your bladder, it's probably cystitis, and you may need antibiotics from your doctor. If it's from your vagina, it's probably your period. Wait a few weeks or a couple of months to see if your cycle continues to be disrupted. If it does, go to your doctor to get checked.
Don't worry!

I wouldn't panic too much. It's probably just Breakthrough Bleeding. I get this sometimes too. It can be a bit worrying the first time.
May just be related to your hormones.
If you were pregnant and something was going wrong the bleeding would be very very heavy.
Keep an eye on it. Are you on a contraceptive pill as it can be related to this too.
Monitor it and keep a note of it and see your Doctor after the bank holiday if you're still concerned.
If the bleeding becomes very heavy, and you get severe abdominal cramping or any other symptoms, call NHS Direct (08454647) or go to A&E.

Don't Worry at the moment though i'm sure it's fine!

Some women spot during ovulation - this can happen each month of just once in awhile. Ovulation can occur even a week after your period, everyone is different! As long as you feel okay, don't have a fever or a foul smell down there, you're probably fine... its also possible that your cervix got irritated during sex and that caused the blood - this happens to me on occasion and will heal on its own. If this continues, of course, call a doctor.

if the blood is a brownish color blood then it could possbily be old blood from your period that happens alot.

It may be nothing to worry. Just to be safe side please visit your doctor and get an appointment to check with gynaecologist.
