Period or something else?

I had my IUD removed the beginning of July. It had been in place for 2.5 years and I didn't have any periods while using it. The other day I had slight bleeding for a few days, but not very heavy at all. Just wondering if this was a real period or if it was something else? Sorry for the TMI.

Update:

I did have stomach cramps that usually accompany a menstrual cycle. The reason for the question is that I'm trying to figure out when I will be ovulating.

    It's either your period, spotting, or something else! If you weren't in pain, it should be fine... although, I would ask my physician just to be safe! :)
