A member asked:

Im three days late and now im lightly bleeding and have mild cramps and backpains what can this mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Take pregnancy test: It could just mean that your period is slightly delayed. However, if you are pregnant it could be a sign of an ectopic pregnancy. I suggest that you take a pregnancy test immediately and if it is positive you should go to the Emergency Department immediately for an evaluation.
