I posted the other day but got no responses so hoping to be a bit more successful this time lol
Basically my periods are as follows: day 1- medium flow, dark red bleeding. Day 2 light flow, brown bleeding. Day 3-5 light brown spotting. They’ve been like this for at least the last three years now. Not great but predictable at least.
This month however, it went a bit weird. I had light pink spotting two days before af started which was odd as I never get pink spotting, only brown. Then I had the usual day 1 medium flow, dark red bleeding. I use a mooncup and usually I will need to wear it for two days then the spotting I have isn’t really enough for me to bother using anything. So I put the mooncup in on day 2 and went about my day. When I took it out, there was barely a drop in there. Which was strange so I left it out expecting to put it back in later but there was nothing “coming out” and nothing at all on the loo roll when I went for a wee. The same happened on day 2. No blood or spotting. Yesterday, I felt quite wet down there and after going to the toilet, I noticed some weird looking pinky/brown cm with a strange consistency. Almost like wet toilet paper (it wasn’t wet toilet paper lol) only a small amount but still odd. After that, I’ve had nothing else and today is the same, no spotting at all.
I don’t have an infection of any kind (thrush or UTI) so I know that’s not to blame. What else could be the reason for a one day period, nothing for two days then a bit of pink/brown cm on day 4? I’m not pregnant, I had a lot of cramping on the first day of af so I can’t be. But I have googled furiously to find an answer and all it says is I could be pregnant (which I’m not) or gives advice for people who have one day periods all the time, not just as a one off.
Is any of that normal? I don’t know if I should be concerned. I’ve got another follow up at the FC end of Feb so I will mention it then although I’m hoping my period before that will be less weird. Anyone else had this? Please tell me it’s normal? I have actually been less stressed this month so I can’t even explain it away with “oh it’s just the stress.”
