Attn! Help Please?!?
Posted: 10-11-06 09:53am

Hhahah kay so I got my period this month. It was on time and pretty regular, as i'm on birth control. And then it ended on monday. But lastnite, when I was going to the bathroom (sorry for the graphic details) I noticed there was still blood up there. Just a very little amount nothing huge, and it wasn't leaking all over the place. But I was just a little concerned. Because this has never happened before, or... If it has I have not noticed it. Now i'm just wondering if this is the tail end of my period exiting. Orrrrrr could it be something more serious like implantation bleeding? Maybe just spotting? (birth control related).
Any responses would be lovely. I'd just like some relief before I worry
myself crazzzzzzy. Ahaha.
Thanks.

Well to me that sounds like the end of your period, I know with me at least after my period (gross sorry) if I put some toilet paper up there itll some out with blood on it but there wont be anymore actualy leaking out (only reason I know this is im usualy afraid that I forgot a tampon in there and I put my finger in to check, im just paranoid)

i think it would be way too early for implantation bleeding, thats after you ovualte and everything so its like after at least 15 or so days after your period

it may be something involving your birth controle though, im not sure, if you think it is then you should see your doc and ask him/her

I agree with .Idony - I think it's too early to be implantation bleeding since you only just came off your period. It is theoretically possible but very unlikely.

Implantation bleeding is not common but some women do get a little bit of bleeding around the time they would have expected their period to start (maybe a little earlier) and this is typically the time when implantation occurs (approx 10-12 days post ovulation).
It is usually pink or red (but maybe brown ish) and is like light spotting for maybe a day or so.

I believe what you are describing is just the end of your period, it is common for a day or two after the end of your period to have some brownish mucusy stuff but to not actually bleed - it is just the uterus/cervix/vagina performing its own natural healthy self cleaning.

May be birth control. How long have you been on it?

Yeah I think you guys are right. Must be the end of my period. It seems to be going away.
I've been on my bc for about 9 months now, and i've never had any spotting, so that was kind of the last thought in my mind. Pretty sure everything is okay. Thanks for the relief guys!!!
