I had my period on the 13th and it sort of stop by the 18th. However, since then I have been having very light spotting till today - 23rd. The spotting color is red to brown and is slightly thick. Not like what I have previously. Is this ok? I am trying to get pregnant this month if possible.

Hi, thanks for using HCM.
Common causes for prolonged bleed are anemia and infection. It is not normal get continued spotting after periods, which need to be investigated, not to worry correction of underlying problems helps to solve your problem.
Consult doctor for examination, may need to get Complete blood test, swab test from vaginal secretions.
Chances of conception are less in this cycle, correction of problem will increase chances of conception in your subsequent cycle.
Hope this helps you,
Regards
