Ovulation bleeding or ovulation spotting is a common monthly occurrence for many women. There are some who have never experienced it, or only experienced it after changing birth control, but you should know that it is normal, regardless if you have the spotting or not. Some who experience ovulation bleeding monthly use it as a reasonably reliable way to determine ovulation so they can use this sign to either avoid getting pregnant or to conceive instead. What Causes Ovulation Bleeding First, let’s discuss what ovulation is in general. This is when the ovary releases an egg to make it’s way
Facts About Ovulation Bleeding
Hi. Me and my partner had sex July 12th. I was 10 days late for my period, it was due July 22nd and it came on August 1st. Once I did get it, it was for my normal 7 days. A week later, which is my new ovulation week, I spotted for 3 -4 days. I have NEVER had ovulation bleeding. I had all of the symptoms of pregnancy. I took four pregnancy tests and they all came back negative. Could I be pregnant?
Hi Darenda, you might be having ovulation bleeding this time. You should visit a doctor for the proper diagnoses of your condition. Regards
Hi. I had unprotected sex a day after my period. I took the morning after pil(norlevo) like within 1 hour after it happend and now 4 days before m period is suppose to begin I had some light red discarge but very little 2 days after that I have more bleeding darker red. I don’t have tender breast and im not nausea. I feel normal except for a little bit cramping now and then. Is it symptoms of the morning after pil or could I be pregnant?
Hi Nel, this might be happening because of the morning pill. Sometimes, high potency medications do cause period like discharge and cramps. You should visit a doctor if the condition persists. Regards
Hi, I’ve had my period on 5th August, 2016 which lasted for 5 days thus ending on 9th August, 2016. My husband and I are trying to conceive so we had sex on 14, 16, and 18 days of August 2016. I’ve started menstruating again from 19th August till now. Please what’s causing me to menstruate twice in a month. And what’s my best chances of conceiving? *NB: I’m taking vitamin E supplement
I had my period exactly two weeks ago and just yesterday I started bleeding. It was very light and spotty and dark brown in color. I figured it would go away overnight but is still here and has even gotten a little brighter in color, like a brownish red instead of the dark brown it started out as. It keeps coming and going. I notice it when I push and when I use the bathroom. And I’ve started having some light cramping, nothing too drastic. I have no idea what this is, I’ve always had a very regular cycle. I’m worried there might be something wrong. I cannot see my doctor for almost a week and I need answers now. Also it might help to mention that my most recent period was extremely light, which is not common for me. Any answers are greatly appreciated.

Hi Sue I had 1 day late period. I had pink spotting first day, next day looks like light blood, next 3 days very light spotting, only saw it when I wipe, before that late day I had very high temperature for 5 days and pregnancy signs: nauseous, tired, headache, bloating.. Then now I’m spotting for 3 days, sometimes it disappear ..my doctor gave me antibiotics thought it’s infection but I have no pain when I pee..I am also on implanon and I drank stametta for two days yes ..and day after I’m now taking prenatal supplements. The one with lots of folic acid and irons and all vitamins but spotting is still there, only slightly if I wipe. nothing on my panties.. Need your advise please
Hi Mavis, the light spotting along with the nausea, temperature and fatigue, shows that you might be having implantation bleeding. This happens when you are during the early stages of pregnancy the ovum, or fertilized egg, attaches itself to the uterine wall. This always occurs within the First Trimester and can sometimes cause a little amount of blood to be released. You should definitely take a pregnancy test for confirmation. Regards
Hi sue,
Me and my partner had unprotected sex 10 days earlier before my regular cycle came, during the night we had sex i started bleeding and i have it for 3 days now, is it an implantation bleeding? Or just that my period came to early? Thank you
Hi Zoe, Implantation occurs within 6-12 days after unprotected intercourse. The bleeding you are having after intercourse could because of orgasm that resulted in uterine contractions. The bleeding during or after intercourse is not a normal thing, it could suggest possibilities like vaginal infections, internal injury, endometritis, anemia, ovarian cysts, etc. It is difficult to comment on the exact cause for your condition without examination. You should visit a doctor because the exact cause can only be made out after careful evaluation. Regards

I had light pink spotting (just once I noticed on a wipe) on CD 10 but thought maybe it was because I had sex that morning, however I had light brown spotting on CD 11 and no spotting on CD 12 so far (today) and had sex. Could this be ovulation spotting? I normally ovulate around CD 15.

Hi Stephanie, Cramps and breast tenderness are the signs of early pregnancy. You might be in the early stages of pregnancy. You should take a pregnancy test to confirm that whether you are pregnant or not. Regards
The most fertile days in the cycle will be at least 3 days before, during and some days after ovulation. This will be the best time for you to try and conceive. Sperm will survive for 3 to 5 days while the egg will last for 12 to 24 hours. You are fertile for about 5 to 7 days. In case you are not sure about your ovulation, you can also use an ovulation kit to make sure.
