    i don't know as I never had that. I suppose it could be due to peri as we are all different.neutral

    Spotting is so common on Peri it’s unreal.  I read about this all the time which is reassuring because I’ve spotted for 6 months.  I’m having tests to take away anything horrid.

    Keep your eye on it but try not to worry.

    Spotting can be normal, but I suggest you go to your gyn to get checked out.  It never hurts to be careful. xx

    For the past 4 months, my periods have not been red, just dark brown spotting and or clots. It comes in time or a few days early. I was a bit concerned at first as its kinda gross, but after reading up online I think it's just down to perimenopause and hopefully the start of the end of my periods. I read that dark blood is a sign of old blood in the uterus, due to the uterus not contracting fully during a period. So I took that to mean my uterus is getting tired and soon I won't have periods when it gives up completely.

    I’ll sometimes start spotting that same way, it starts right mid cycle and always coincides with very painful breasts/nipples. Pretty sure it’s because progesterone is too low and you have all that unopposed estrogen. I’ll spot right up to my period. This month I started spotting a week before but after a day it turned into a full blown period from hell. So I go from missing two months, to spotting mid cycle, to early or late, to light or heavy. It’s just insane. I think I’ve ruined every pair of underwear I own. So annoying!!
