Could Lifting Heavy Items And Shopping Cause Spotting Before My Period Is Due?
Question: Hi, I just started some spotting after taking my mother in law shopping for grocceries, I lifted 5 cases of water one at a time and pushed the heaving shopping cart around in the sore and up a handicap ramp. I'm not due for my period until next week, I stared my period on April 19
Brief Answer:
Hormonal imbalance
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
It is least likely for that the spotting is due to trauma secondary to the lifting of weight. Usually spotting in mid cycle is due to hormonal imbalance or sensitive endometrial lining which again is due to hormonal imbalance.
If you have other symptoms like breast tenderness, giddiness, hot flushes you may have to consult your doctor for a detailed examination and evaluation to ascertain the problem and find our the cause.
Hope, I answered your query. Wish you good health.
Regards
