That actually happens to me sometimes. It's normally during my ovulation time or the week before I start my period. I asked my dr about it & she said it's normal. If it gets heavier or lasts over a week, that's when you need to worry & contact your dr.

You could just have some breakthrough bleeding... It can happen.... As long as you know that you are not at risk of being pregnant, I would just keep an eye on things... I know that when I was ovulating regularly I would have a clear discharge sometimes with a blood or brown tinge..... This may be all it is... If it worsens or if you are more concerned, you might call your gynocologist office to check with the nurse.

That's not PMS. As we get older our body's change. If you are in your 40, this is Pre Menopause.. Some women take up to 10 years to completely get over it!!! Now PMS is more mental. Usually a week before, this might help you understand a little better.
PMS Explained
The causes of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), a condition that is manifested by emotional and physical changes in women prior to menstruation, have yet to be clearly defined, “but some women may be more sensitive than others to changing hormone levels during their menstrual cycle,” And some medical researchers suspect that physiological, genetic, nutritional and behavioral factors combine in varying degrees and are possible causes.
"The symptoms of PMS are not made up, they are definitely real and repetitive."
PMS is physical changes that can be hormonally explained. “About 30 percent of these women have mild to moderate symptoms, which include breast swelling and tenderness, fatigue and trouble sleeping, upset stomach, bloating, constipation or diarrhea, headache, appetite changes and food cravings,” she said.
“Symptoms also include joint or muscle pain, tension, irritability, mood swings or crying spells, anxiety or depression, and trouble concentrating or remembering.”
What is PMDD?
Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) is a severe, disabling form of PMS that involves mood disorders, such as depression, anxiety, tension and persistent anger or irritability.
Any woman who has a monthly period can have PMDD. It can get worse with age, but it goes away after a woman stops having periods.
Usually women with PMDD also have the other physical symptoms of PMS. “The symptoms occur during the two weeks before their period and might last up to a few days after their periods start,” she said.
Many treatments have been tried for easing the symptoms of PMS, but no treatment has been found that works for everyone. A combination of lifestyle changes and other treatment may be needed, she said.
To help alleviate the milder symptoms, Dr. Cosner suggests trying dietary changes that include decreased intake of caffeine, sugar or salt.
“Take a multivitamin every day that includes 400 micrograms of folic acid. A calcium supplement with vitamin D can help keep bones strong and may help with PMS symptoms. In more severe cases, diuretics, ibuprofen, or antidepressants may be helpful.”
Although PMS does not seem to be related to abnormal hormone levels, some women respond to hormone treatment. For example, one important approach has been using medications such as birth control pills to stop ovulation from occurring.

It could be implantation. A lot of women experience discharge and its perfectly normal (clear and almost odorless). I had just a tinge of pink when I had implantation bleeding. Or it could be an infection. If you know you aren't pregnant I would see a doctor.

sounds like clotting. When large clots occur, mucus can often occur, to facilitate expulsion. hence the clear "stuff" If your period was delayed it may be particularly strong if you had little to no cramping. If cramping was intense, it may be due to a cyclic hormonal anomaly.... not that uncommon.
sorry im not a girl though...
