What Causes Pink Spotting And Cramps After Menstrual Periods?

One week after my period ended, i spotted pink and started cramping. The next day I spotted light brown and again cramped. I am no longer spotting but have been cramping for 5 days now. I also started feeling nauseas and tired today. I have always had very regular periods, so this has me panicked. What can it be?

Hi! thanks for your post on HCM!

Well, if I were your treating physician for the cause of pink spotting and cramps after menstrual periods in otherwise normal healthy female with regular periods, I would like to consider following possibilities as:

1. infection in the birth canal, uterus, cervix or the vagina

2. pelvic infections

3. endometriosis

4. uterine polyp or cervical polyp/Nabothian cyst

6. sudden hormonal changes could be ovarian pathology

7. malignancy, rarely

Therefore, you need to see a gynecologist in your area for ultrasonography and PAP test and to relieve your concerns...
