What Causes Breakthrough Bleeding?
Ok, I got my period on August 15, 2016 it ended August 20, 2016. Last night i started spotting but still had sexual intercourse with my husband. Today September 3, 2016 when i woke up went to the bathroom i wiped and it seems like i m on my period again. This is the first time that something like this happens. At first with the spotting i thought it was implantation bleeding but now i m so confused.

Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
The symptom you describe could be caused by many medical conditions.Possible causes of breakthrough bleeding or abnormal vaginal bleeding may include:
-Pregnancy and related complications
-Hormonal imbalances/ovarian dysfunction
-PID/STI
-Pelvic/uterine masses
I will suggest you see the Gynecologist for evaluation.You may need a pelvic ultrasound for initial evaluation.If no cause identified, an infectious/STI work-up and if need be, hormonal work-ups may be requested.
Hope this will help
Best regards
