No Period, Intermittent Spotting, Cancer Fear!

Hey ladies,

So I was DX with PCOS around 18 months/2 years ago but suspect I've had it a good few years just that being on the pill masked the symptoms.

Around a year or so ago I started spotting between periods. Sometimes it would be around the time I should be ovulating, other times the day before my period properly started which is fine. Changes can happen.

My concern is my latest cycle. I'm currently on day 63 and still no period. What I have been getting is some intermittent spotting. Started last Monday and happened once a day for about 3 days then stopped. Then once more Friday night. Nothing since. It is literally just a bright red streak when I wipe and nothing more.

I have all the feelings like I'm about to get my period. The soreness/heavy feeling, the back ache, spots and a bit of a belly ache which is normal for me just before bleeding starts. But nothing.

My main concern is Cervical cancer but my last smear was January 2017 and was completely clear. I have also noticed a mole "down there" I dont know how long its been there but at least 2 years but I now have fears of Vulval Cancer!

Is this just another crappy symptom of PCOS? I CAN CONFIRM 100% THAT I AM NOT PREGNANT!
