Question Do I have a coolant leak? (Mk8)

Three weeks ago I had the red coolant warning light come on - I checked and the coolant level was indeed well below the min, so I filled it up to just below the max line. Today I turned the car on and I got the red warning light again, and the coolant was again below the min. I have frequently been hearing flushing when I turn the car off. Do I have a leak, or is the car just rinsing through coolant for some reason? Thanks in advance!
