Hi, I had my period about a 2 weeks ago, and then it was done from about last saturday-this saturday(so about a week) but for the past couple of days, it seemed to have come back again. But not so heavy, and it sort of looks like thick light crimson/brown or pink vaginal discharge. It's stopped now, but I was just concerned incase something was wrong during that time. My friend said it might of been any underwear I was wearing that was too tight, but I'm not sure.
Sorry it's taken us so long to get to your question.
It sounds like you might just be experiencing some spotting, or 'breakthrough bleeding'. This isn't at all uncommon, especially during the first few years of menstruation, if you've been under a lot of stress, or are beginning/adjusting hormonal birth control.
If it occurs every cycle or you're concerned about it, you can make an appointment with your doctor.
