Cycle Perplexities
Is your cycle misbehaving? Like your usual N-day menstrual cycle is all of a sudden longer or shorter, or you're spotting where AF should be here in full force, or PMS symptoms but no sign of AF? And has it got you thinking (...pregnant?), or generally confused or stressed or time to call the OB/Gyn? CycleView your cycle!

Mid cycle spotting, SO confused.

Posted by: TrinityCrystal on Fri Jul 23, 2010
I have been having a lot of strange feelings lately. Last month I was near convinced that I was pregnant. I had sore BBs, occasional nausea (no vomiting) , wild mood swings, a definite widening of my hips(among a plethora of other odd symptoms) ... but a loss of weight.

I should probably mention that my cycle is running 31 days on average and is fairly regular.

I broke down and tested near the end of my cycle. The test came up negative. I got AF a day or two later. It was much shorter and lighter, with no cramping whatsoever. But it was definitely more than spotting.

About a week ago, my husband told me that he thought I was pregnant. He sited my emotions, telling me that he has only ever seen a woman like this once before, and that she was in early pregnancy at the time. So, we went and bought a test... which we took on cycle day 11 or 12. It also came back negative.

Now comes the really strange and confusing bit... Between cycle day 9 and cycle day 14 (July 17-22) I have had what feels like the symptoms of a UTI show up and leave on three separate days. I have gotten rid of the symptoms each time by flushing my system with water.

On cycle day 12 I had just the tiniest bit of spotting on the tissue when I wiped. It was just a touch darker than urine. On cycle day 14 (yesterday) I had a bit of brown spotting. Just BARELY noticeable on the pad, more so on the tissue when I wiped.

It cleared up at the end of the evening, and has not happened at all today.

Does anyone know what this could be? I have scoured the internet and found a lot of possibilities (some frightening and some not) But does anyone know from experience?

I would have suspected implantation, but for the fact that it happened several days *before* I was due to ovulate. For the record, I have never had mid-cycle bleeding before. IE- I never bleed when I ovulate.
