Brief Answer:
Can be due to weight gain or hormonal changes.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Mild spotting and brownish discharge that starts 7 days before the period with decreased bleeding during periods can happen due to weight gain, stress, hormonal disturbance or anaemia. You need to consult your gynecologist and get a few blood tests done to find out the exact cause for proper treatment.
Hope this answer is helpful.

Hi Mam, That you for your answer.
In last 2 years i have gained 10 kgs of weight as i was on antidepressants. Now i weigh around 64 Kgs and my height is 145 cms. Recently on dr's prescription we did Blood test and my haemoglobin level was 13, however i was Vitamin D deficient. Dr has started tablets for Vitamin D. I was worried for this months period , as I just bleeded for 1 day last month. Do i need to take any medicines for regularising my dates ?

Brief Answer:
You need to have investigations to rule out PCOD.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
The weight gain can be associated with hormonal disturbances and polycystic ovaries that can cause the decreased bleeding. You need to have hormonal tests and ultrasound scan for proper diagnosis under the guidance of your gynecologist. You need to have medicines to regularise your periods and to increase the bleeding during periods.
