What Causes Light Bleeding Before The Start Of My Periods?

Hello,
For 3 months I was having a very small amount of bleeding, around a pin head size, and/or brown discharge about 5 days before my period. This had never happened before so I went to my gynecologist. I have no STD's, a negative pregnancy test and some small cysts were found in an ultrasound. My Dr. is giving my a uterine biopsy in a week and really hasn't answered any of my questions of why I have to have it or if the cysts could be causing this. Since I last saw her (over a month ago) I have had a regular period that was 5 days late (ended a week and a half ago) and in the past 3 days I have had period-like cramping and brown discharge. This has worried me and since I haven't been able to contact my Dr. and the nurses can't say anything I was wondering if you can give me some insight of what it could possibly be so I can calm my head a bit until I have a chance to speak with her next week.
thanks!
