Hi guys,
I’’m new here and this is my first post. I’ve seen how helpful this site is. So here goes...

3 years ago i concieved on the first try and it ended in a miscarriage at around 6-7 weeks. After this my periods disapeared for 2-3 months , i was told by my gp this was normal bit very frustrating because we wanted to try and conceive asap. So i went back to the gp and as a result sent me for a transvaginal scan. At the scan i could see my system and i was told i was ovulating and to go and try for a baby but i was also told i did have a few cycsts but nothing to worry about.
So it was this cycle i did get pregnant and my son was born.

Fast foward three years my periods became regular since having my son and i had a period every month.

In August i had my period and it was towards the end of August i went to a camp and did a lot of walking in those two weeks, slept only couple of hours. On top of this i travelled a lot- so from dubai to uk, uk to india, india to uk , uk to dubai. AND finally from dubai to uk. This was all done in like 3 weeks. So come September my period started when it was supposed to except it didnt really start, i had light pink discharge around 19th September and a week later got more blood and since then its been light bleeding everyday and when i say light bleeding it would mean i would have enough blood from the morning till bedtime to fill a panty liner.

We tried for a baby in August after my period. I did take tests thinking maybe this is implantation bleeding but no.

I have a doctors appointment booked for next week but until then what could this be? This has never happened to me before. And as you can imagine its frustrating because we want to ttc. It took 8 months to concieve my son.

Any ideas would be appreciated. I stupidly googled and became paranoid i have cervical/ ovarian cancer or a tumour or cancerous polyp!

Oh also i had a smear test done last year it did come back as abnormal but the gynaecologist then sent sample for hpv and it came back negative and said no further treatment would be needed. My weight i feel has gone up and down in last two months.

Probably an anovulatory cycle because of the travel. Unless this happens again, not worth seeing a doctor about... totally normal to disrupt your cycle because of any change routine.

Thank you for replying! But the fact that its just the same amount of blood everyday is annoying except one or two days where it was just brown discharge. I just want it to end. Strange thing is in the mornings first two hours after waking up there is nothing until i actually go to pee in the washroom then the blood is there and by evening and before bed it stops again.

If this ever stops and we try how on earth can i track my cycle or if i do get pregnant how can i even say what the first day of my cycle was?

Track your bbt.

I had missed the bit where you're still bleeding!! Probably worth a trip to the gp. Most likely they will recommend going on contraception. I'd avoid unless you really are at your wits' end - they could make the situation more unstable!

Yes i dont want to take any forms of contraception. Im hoping this bleeding will just stop. If it did then i would have just thought its a one off and just see when my next period begins and how it is. Couple of days until i see the gp.

Im not very well informed of certain things in this department. Is there medication to stop the bleeding for the one off which isnt a contraception? If that makes any sense?
If it were a polyp then id be bleeding between periods? Because this period did come on time.
There is no itchiness or smell. It just feels like ive been on my 5th day of my period for the past two weeks
