It kept growing and led to a lot of pain and tons of bleeding. It was in a tricky spot to remove. Ended up getting a hysterectomy (I was done having kids).

Yep, started when I was 43, was checked out (no problems) and dr suggested an iud that would essentially stop my periods altogether. I love not having that problem anymore!

Same, this began for me mid 40s, gunky spotting for a day when I ovulated some months. Inevitably those months would also include a period with hideous cramps and more blood. It was like hormones on steroids. I got a pelvic ultrasound and nothing was seen.

Started a few years ago. Now happens every month on day like 14. Got ultrasound and all was normal. I’m 44

I am past this now, but I had midcycle spotting nearly every month for years and gyn never found anything wrong. Interestingly, at one point I lost weight and it stopped. I was not obese; just your average 10 pounds or so overweight.

I’m 51 and feel like I’m almost always spotting. If I wear white underwear, spotting is guaranteed.
