Between my period I have bloody discharge..this is the second time this has happened. It only lasts a few days and it isn't too heavy but it does get on my underwear. I'm a virgin so it can't be an STD. I'm thinking it might be a vaginal infection or something but there aren't any weird odors, itching, burning or anything like that. I'm also worried it's something really serious. Is it ever normal to have bleeding between a period..I mean this has only happened twice, any change it might not happen again? Obviously if it keeps happening somethings wrong and will def check it out. Anyone have any idea whats going on?

Although spotting between periods is sometimes a common thing based on many different variables, only your doctor has the means to give you a straight answer and a clear conscience. Much better to be safe than sorry.
