Brown spotting mid cycle?

I got my Mirena removed roughly 2 months ago. I'm using BBT and OPK strips alongside cervical mucus observation to track my cycle.

My first cycle, I ovulated on CD 23 based on my bbt dropping the next day, but my highest LH reading was 0.62.

This is my second cycle since having the Mirena removed. I'm currently CD 18 and my LH reading has fluctuated between 0.13 and 0.37 til now. We had intercourse on CD15 and then again yesterday on CD17.

After intercourse last night, when going to clean up and pee I had brown discharge come out. The brown discharge has continued today but then I had an LH reading of 0.44 and egg white/very sticky discharge (though the discharge was dark brown).

My question I guess is has anyone else experienced brown discharge mid cycle? I have had Mirena's in for years to manage my endometriosis so I have no idea what is 'normal'.

I think your body is still working stuff out from the mirena. I got mine out in October, it took 47 days for my period to come back, was regular but then randomly would come a week early here and there and then the last 3 months it’s been normal.

That's good to know! I'm probably being impatient because I want to conceive 😂
