I just had my period last week and now i'm spotting and a lot of mucous and cramps. what's the problem?

Could be: Mucous and cramping the week after your period could be symptoms of an infection.During menses the cervix is relatively more open and blood is an excellent media for growing bacteria so infections can ascend into the uterus causing symptoms the week after your period.See your PCP,GYN,or an urgent care clinic today since the sooner infections are treated the less risk of tubal scarring& infertility
