LMP 12/24. Spotting started 1/10 and still going. Has been heavy on occasion but not enough to fill 1 pad in day. Cramps mild to moderate throughout. Neg blood pregnancy test. 39 years old. One ovary lost 2 years ago due to 6cm benign cyst. Periods 3-4 days normal and 25-26 day cycles. What could be wrong with me? I am ttc and worried being that only have one ovary.
