Hi there.  I too have been experiencing the same symptoms for a while now.
I was treated for cervical dysplasia about four months ago.  I also had an
inflammed cervix.  I still have the bleeding about a week or so before my period.  Nothing really heavy, but definitely bothersome.  I also have the bleeding when I go to the bathroom and like Steph, my periods are just like clockwork.
What causes this bleeding mid-cycle?  Does anyone know?  I posted a similar message about a month ago, but had no response!
Kate
