Question 1

Accepted Answer

Try again: You always have to rule out pregnancy.  Get a home pregnancy test.  They should turn positive about the time you're a week late.  If it's negative, repeat it and call your doctor.

Question 2

pls help! light period with mucus and backache, and its a late period (11 days) took 3 pregnant test & came out neg. am i pregnant? or any other reason?

Accepted Answer

Possibly: Pregnancy is always a possibility.  Obtain a home pregnancy test.  They usually become positive at about the same time the next expected period. If it's negative, repeat it in a week.

Question 3

foul-smelling vaginal discharge 3 days after one-day period. painful sex on pelvic area. resume of light period but with foul mucus material?

Accepted Answer

Probable infection: Foul smell with discharge and mucus-y material suggests a vaginal infection--whether or not sti can identify only by test. See your gyn / dr / urgent care for examination and testing so can receive any necessary treatment. Good luck!

Question 4

the last 5 days my period has only been bright red bloody cervical mucus. never needed a tampon or filled up a pad. normal light period?

Accepted Answer

Irregular periods: Irregular periods are one of the most common problems obgyns treat. If this is one time problem it usually resolves on its own. If this is a recurring problem you should be evaluated. Infections &amp;  hormonal changes can cause spotting. If there is a concern for pregnancy then do  a home pregnancy test .  There are many options available to help regulate the menstrual cycle. Schedule a visit.

Question 5

i had a miscarriage last week sunday,and l was given some medication for cleansing. i was 10 weeks 5 days. from tuesday l started having a very light period. now um spotting or rather discharging some light pink/orange/brown mucus. is it normal?

Accepted Answer

: This sounds like things are returning to normal. Some bleeding after a miscarriage is expected. Your normal period should return in about a month. Pain, fever, excessive bleeding should be evaluated further.

Question 6

i had a light period this cycle and very slimy blood. now it's pink with clear slime. countless similar questions on forums. some say uterine lining can resemble clear fertile mucus. others say it's estrogen creating cm. which is it?

Accepted Answer

: Cant be diagnosed in this forum You need an exam by a Gyn. Pl do not listen to the so called forums. to avoid confusion- Your doc only

Question 7

light period with a lot of mucus. is this normal? took two pregnancy tests, both negative.

Accepted Answer

Trust the test: Home pregnancy tests are very accurate. They are the same tests used in a doctor's office. They can detect a pregnancy 7-10 days after conception. The best time to take one is when you miss your period.  If you doubt the result you can repeat it in 1-2 days. If you were pregnant the hormone level would rise enough for detection. Sounds like this is just a light period.

Question 8

is no mucus before your period good?

Accepted Answer

Not bad: I would say that the majority of women do not report "mucous" right before their period.  While you might experience mid-cycle mucousy discharge, this is usually resolved by your period.  It sounds normal.

Question 9

what does thick white mucus before your period mean?

Accepted Answer

Hormone response: As long as it doesn't itch or have a bad odor, thick white mucus before your period doesn't mean anythig except that your hormones are changing in preparation for your period.  Best wishes!

Question 10

when does white mucus supposed to come before your period?

Accepted Answer

Two weeks: white/clear mucous, around time of ovulation,  two weeks before period starts.
