A member asked:
23yo spotting light pink a week after period, lower back pain, no other symptoms, have history of irregular periods, not on birth control, is it serious?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Probably not: Menstrual irregularities are very common. If this persists and becomes increasingly severe then it would be prudent to pay a visit to your gynecologist and be examined. Good luck.

No: Probably this is ovulation pain, however, you may also have an ovarian cyst. You should see a provider and check this out!
