Have Been Spotting. Blood Not Brown. What Next?

Yes, I have been having spotting 1 week before my period is due. The blood is not brown, which indicates to me that it is not implantation bleeding . The spotting is pink, with some red, and occurs mostly after a bowel movement or sexual intercourse. It has been lighter when these things do not occur. I have been having some pregnancy symptoms , but I feel that it is unlikely at this point. I am on a 34 day cycle I believe as I have tracked for the past two months, so this doesnt make sense.

Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
As you already said this type of bleeding is not due to implantation bleeding so it is your impending period.
So please do not worry!
Good luck.
Regards
Dr. Richa
