A member asked:

Is it also spotting when its blood tinged mucus discharge? for a few days around ovulation small streaks of blood mixed in thick discharge (no smell)

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ovulation spotting: Just prior to ovulation, estrogen levels drop to near zero, producing minor amounts of blood on occasion from degenerating endometrial tissue. This is essentially "normal" , but may sometimes be more pronounced if two eggs ovulate spontaneously, as a result of the higher levels of estrogen dropping, with more endometrial degeneration, hence more bleeding.
