Spotting between periods

I'm really after some advice because I'm freaking out :(
I'm 31, I have and 5 and 2 year old. Still BF my 2 year old but a very small amount. My periods returned about 12 months ago and apart from when I have the Covid vaccines they're pretty regular.
My cycle is normally between about 38-42 days. I have suspected PCOS as I have very mild symptoms and some cysts found on scans. It's never been confirmed and never been something that particularly effects me.
About 9 days ago I started spotting brown blood. Only from when o wiped. It was very stop start and stopped completely.
I went to the doctors who gave me no advice but did a swab. No results yet.
Spotting has started again. It's more now then what it was before. It's not so much borne now more pink/red.
It's not a period, I'm not pregnant.
When this started I'd expected it to be around ovulation time but I definitely hadn't ovulated as I get very strong symptoms when I do and those weren't there.
I'm really worried, has anyone experienced this?

I have bleeding/ spotting between periods. I had a smear ( which came back fine). The nurse told me I had cervical ectropian , and it is harmless and common in women who have had children. It might be that .
