Brown mucus after period

I ended my period a little over a week ago. Today I cramped a little then later had light pink and brown mucus but no actual blood. What is this? Is it normal that long after your period ends? Should I be worried?

It could just be old blood. Implantation bleeding doesn't happen until 7-9 days after conception. So unless you ovulate during your period or the day after it is unlikely that this is implantation bleeding.

This seems like implantation bleeding. Is there a possibilty that you are pregnant?
