mid cycle bleeding driving me bananas

Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue. I have had mid cycle bleeding on and off since the birth of my son 2 years ago. Some months I get nothing, some months (like this month) I get loads. I don't see how it can be ovulation bleeding tbh as I get it across 3-4 days at a time.

I've been to the GP about it several times. I've had two internal scans which showed nothing. I've been on time for all my smears which have come back clear. I have had STI tests - clear. GP is not concerned. But it is driving me up the wall. Does anyone else have this problem and do you know what causes it for you?!

I should also say, I'm not on any hormonal contraception and I never had this at any point before I had my son.

If your not against going on the pill then I would, it sorted the same problem out for me and I now very rarely get a period.

Interested in this thread?

I'm massively against going on the pill to be honest, it absolutely fucks with my mental health and also makes me fat.

I'm not fussed about having a period, in fact I prefer having a period over not having one, but the mid cycle bleeding is enraging.

I had this after the birth of DC2 and before DC3 - I had similar internal scans and tests which came back with nothing and the GP wasn't worried and said it was one of those things. Some months was worse than others - sometimes it was like a mini-period, sometimes just spotting, sometimes nothing at all.

I haven't had it since DC3 was born and came to the conclusion it must have been something hormonal - I now get quite severe nausea one day mid-cycle instead, which I'm not entirely sure I prefer to the bleeding.

that sounds exactly the same mouse. So odd.
