Hi everyone I’m new here, me and my hubby have been ttc for 3 months now.

This is my 3rd cycle I have experienced and so far it has been strange.
The last 2 cycles I have suffered badly in the week leading up to my period. I normally suffer badly with cramps and back ache and can be very low. Normally day 1-3 are the heaviest then 4 is medium amen 5 is light.

This time it has been very different, no symptoms in the week leading up (only know I was due on to my period tracker app) and so far day 1-3 has been exceptionally light with very little to no cramping, just a headache. Day 4/5 (today is 5) has been spotting, ranging from brown/pink/ red.

Can anyone determine if this is just another cycle which has been light or is it something else.?

Thank you for reading sorry it was long!!

It sounds like a light cycle to me, but that’s not a guarantee that it is.

I would take a pregnancy test in 4-5 days to know (preferably a FRER) in case it could be implantation bleeding.

Best of luck :)
