Light bleeding mid cycle

For the past 6 months or so I have had bleeding mid cycle. It's often brown reddish or light red and watery, lasts a couple of days. I have slight cramping/headache with it too.

just wondering if anyone has had anything similar. I had my smear last September and all was fine. I'm planning on speaking to doc next week but any reassurance is welcome.

  • Hello Cath86

    I'm sorry to hear that you've been having some ongoing problems with mid-cycle bleeding. it's understandable that you're feeling anxious. the important thing is to get this checked by your GP who will be best placed to arrange any appropriate tests or referrals so I'm glad to hear that you're planning on doing this later in the week. 

    Hopefully, they will be able to give you some reassurance. 

    Best wishes,
