Mid-cycle spotting - what could it be?

[Honeydukes]

My periods are regular, 28 days. I've had some spotting today, day 17 and I've seen that can be from ovulation but I think I've already ovulated because I had mild period type cramps on day 13 which I think was ovulation pains, I did have rough sex yesterday and the day before. Any ideas?

Are you in date for smears?

Also, it might be worth making a GP appointment. Other causes of bleeding after sex include cervical polyps. And mid cycle bleeding generally can be caused by endometriosis, adenomyosis or fibroids.

You may have grazed your cervix during the rough sex but always worth getting it checked out
