I'm 27, my last period was July 26th. I am always regular to the tee, first thing in the morning on the day of my period is always the heaviest then gradually gets lighter. This time I've been waking up for 4 days with very light pink spotting for about 1 hour then it quits. This morning I thought it was done because the blood was red but it just recently stopped and went to pink. This is so abnormal for me and it's scaring me. I don't have health insurance and I'm not on birth control. (I have two sons I got pregnant off birth control pills and depo so birth control didn't work for me to well) I just got together with my best friend of 15 years and we did make a mistake one night. Just wonder if this has happened to others. I don't want to be pregnant hopefully there are other explanations.

Everyone gets a strange cycle every now and then. Its actually highly unusual to have the same cycle month after month. Spotting can happen for several reasons, including stress, illness, and pregnancy.

I recommend taking a pregnancy test. Some women spot in early pregnancy rather than get a full period.
