When i woke up a couple hours later there was only a lil spot on my panties...but everytime i wipe there is blood..i dont know what this could be and if i should schedule an appointemnt with my gyno..anybody else experience this?? Please help.
Yes!! You need a doctor's appointment!!!!! Even if other people's experience is similar there could be a whole host of reasons, including miscarriage, why this is happening to you. Blood = DOCTOR!! Not website help.
Have you considered taking a pregnancy test? What you are experiencing may be "break-through" bleeding, not uncommon at the beginning of a pregnancy.
Yes, call your Gynocologist and tell them what you've been experiencing.
First off I'd take a pregnancy test (especially if you're on BC pills, as taking the pill while pregnant can harm the baby and cause a miscarriage.) I had light bleeding for three days this cycle and am pregnant (had an U/S yesterday.)
If not pregnant, I would still call and talk to the nurse.
Definitely go see your OBGYN. This happened to me and I was pregnant
Hi J.,
Ofcourse whenever you are experiencing something that makes you nervous is a good idea to visit your doctor, but I would also recommend you get a pregnancy test to rule out a pregnancy... but it sounds to me that you could be pregnant!
I would love to know if you are!

My guess is you might have had a cyst - check with DR.
I would definitly see your Dr. If you are pretty regular and something changes and you think there is an issue see your Doctor. You know your body better than anyone! Good luck!
I was regular for 25 years and had an irregular period one month and went to the doctor. Nothing life threatening but a serious issue reguiring surgery and was able to get it taken care of fairly easily because I did something early.
I'd definitely go see your Gyn. It could possibly be that you're "spotting" during a pregnancy (uterine/tubal) or maybe Uterine Fibroids. Your symptoms are almost identical to mines when my fibroids "act up" twice a year. The last time that happened, my period lasted for 3 months, because I didn't go to GYN. Because you're fairly young, the doc may not think fibroids, but mention it. You may have to have a pelvic exam, sonogram, or ultrasound. Undiagnosed Fibroids can grow to be very large!
Could you be pregnant?
Could be lots of things. Make an appointment so you can rest your mind. As a doctor once told me, "As we mature, our bodies change." I had just turned 30. It made me feel like I was 70...
anytime you have odd periods call the gyno. you can talk to the nurse and tell her what is going on. if its not a new birth controll pill or something to that effect they need to make an appointment to get to the bottom of it all.
Is it at all possible that you could be pregnant & mistake spotting/attachment for a period??? That's happened to me before & turned out that I was pregnant. You might want to take a home pregnancy test to put your mind at ease but absolutely call your doctor. As well, recently I started having a change in my cycle & my doctor was able to take some blood test to check my FSH levels for infertility. You may want to inquire about that even though you're relatively young...
Best of luck to you.
