A member asked:

Bleeding/spotting a week before period for 6 days. mild/no cramps. headaches. red/pink blood. no clots or tissues. what was this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hormone/cycle: variation. Quite common in young female patients. It is a good idea to keep a menstrual diary and you may notice subtle changes in the length and duration of your cycles.
