Hey everyone,

Im new here and praying someone will be able to give me kind of answers. I been searching online and no one seems to have this exact problem, well that ive came across anyway. I had my period and that ended about 3 weeks ago, it was normal 5 days for me and nothing out of ordinary, But about 4 maybe 5 days later i started this dark spotting. It is only there when i wipe and using the restroom or after me and my husband have sex it'll be a light red color with a little more then just when i wipe, but goes right back to this brown spotting, only there when i wipe thing. I have never been on any kind of birth control, actually been trying to conceive for a while now but my husband has a low sperm count so no luck yet. I havent taken a pregnancy test because i dont feel i have any symptoms of pregnancy. Im not sure whats going on and a little shaken up over this. Today is the 31st and so ive been doing this spotting for about 12 days now. I hope someone can help me out here...

Thanks in Advance!
Whit

Wow,
By now you should know if you are pregnant. If so, Congrats... If not, don't be discouraged. Practice, practice.
BV is not caused by sex. It is an inability of the body (for varied reasons) to maintain proper bacterial levels.
I also have spotting, which is really bizarre since I had a hysterectomy 2 years ago. Doc says the spotting is from irritation of tissue due to the BV.
I am out of suggestions for you. I may try the vinegar douche someone was talking about. If you find something that works please let me know.

ok you lost with BV, something i never heard of before, so i looked it up and still at a lost because it says something about having an odor and grey like discharge which i have neither of... im very much at a lost and talked to my mom about it all and she doesnt know either. ( Im 23 ) Thanks Cathy for your advice though!! If i come across anything though ill def get back to you!
