Hello doctor,
I am worried as I am bleeding between my menstrual cycles which is unusual. I would like to inform you that I had spotting for two to three months after I received my second shot for COVID-19 last year but after that, my periods have been regular. This month, strangely, I am bleeding profusely. I would also like to inform you that I am currently taking iron supplements. I also had a general smear test and blood test seven to eight months ago.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I understand your concern.
Sometimes spotting or slight bleeding may occur during ovulation and it is considered completely normal. I wish to inform you if the spotting is happening on the 15th day of your menstrual cycle then it could be because of ovulation bleeding. I would like to suggest you a thyroid profile and ultrasonography scan to rule out any other things. You may also consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and proceed with their consent.
