Hello ma'am and welcome.

Pink bleeding is considered normal when seen at the beginning or end of a period, and as you have just finished your period I do not think this is a cause for concern.

But other factors that can cause a pink bleed are stress, medications, infections, birth control, etc. So if at all you can relate to any one of these causes, then your presentation has an explanation. You can also consult your doctor if at all you wish to initiate medications to prevent a bleed, but if at all this is just normal then it should subside itself.

It is also important to note that you do have a few other symptoms that do suggest some underlying cause as listed above (e.g. infections, stress, medications, birth control, sudden weight gain or weight loss, etc.). It may be wise to visit a doctor for this.

Best wishes.
