Early spotting ?

[Lucky87]

Hi there , last month I started to spot only when wiping 11 days before my period was due cycle day 21/22 ish. I went to doctors and they checked me over checked cervix etc and said to ring back this month and let her know what happened. So my period started on cycle day 30 but I had the spotting up to my period, it was lighter than usual but lasted same amount of time just not as much i usually have clots with my period.

This month comes along cycle day 26 spotting again. I’m on cycle day 29 now due on in a couple days. My breasts have been aching since day 26

Any ideas? Am I just having longer but lighter periods.

🤔 Has your doctor mentioned it could be linked to a diagnosis you already have.

Other diseases such as irritable bowel syndrome, tuberculosis, liver disease, and diabetes can cause missed or irregular periods, although this is rare. But if any of these diseases are present, you will usually have other symptoms besides menstrual irregularities.

I don’t have any diganosis at the minute I have a liver scan in December but other than that I’ve been fine. I’m 33 never been into hospital, rarely been to doctors.

I went for a blood test due to achy leg to rule out blood clot, but my alt was 42 instead of 30? So they ran gamma gt and it was 216. Doctor thinks it’s ibuprofen I’ve been taking upto it as I had been taking it 8 days 3 times a day for the leg although it never helped 🤦🏻‍♀️

She’s asking them to check uterus and ovaries at same time as liver x

Sometimes it can be normal to spot around ovulation - could that be it?

I’m not sure. It’s only a little bit, but it lasts until period starts. It’s mainly in morning after I’ve been for a wee first thing x
