    I get a sharp pain in my side...plus I get other weird signs so I know I'm ovulating. I'm more aware of certain smells etc. Its kinda weird.

    Yes, it happens to be once in a while. The cramps are really intense, not like the usual "TOM is coming" cramps.

    the sharp pains is normal....when u can actually feel it ... this tells me that your in tune with your body...and a slight spotting is also normal....

    it's not uncommon. Women with PCOS have higher occurrances of spotting between periods. Spotting between periods can also be a sign of polyps and/or fibroids. I wouldn't worry though if you know that you did in fact ovulate that's probably all it is.

    I have PCOS and cysts all over my ovaries so I have a lot of sharp pains for no apparent reason in the pelvic area and sometimes I get the really sharp pains after sneezing and I have been told that those are instances when maybe the cysts are bursting (I know this is nasty). I know when I'm ovulating for totally different reasons that I don't want to discuss in detail but I'm not sure that for me the two have anything to do with one another. Maybe?

    Uh, yes. Ovulating can cause those cysts to burst. My daughter was 14 when she started having those pains. Tests revealed the cysts. Her doctor recommended birth control pills to prevent her from ovulating so she doesn't have to deal with the pain of the cysts bursting.

    The only time I ever had spotting 2 weeks after a regular period was a couple years ago, and it was "implantation bleeding" which occurs sometimes when you very first get pregnant and the egg is attaching to the lining of the uterus. If there is any chance you might be pregnant, I would get a pregnancy test just to make sure.
