Is Irregular Vaginal Spotting A Symptom Of Perimenopause?

Get internal examination and ultrasound of uterus done.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
I am Dr Ramadevi Wani.
I will be answering your concerns today.
Due to hormonal variations in the peri menopause age one may find such irregular bleeding/spotting vaginally. But hormones are blamed only after other conditions are excluded.
Since you have not mentioned about vaginal discharge/itching it is not due to infection.
A uterine/cervical polyp can cause such vaginal bleeding. Therefore I suggest that you consult your Gynecologist for internal examination and ultrasound of uterus and ovaries. If you are due for Pap smear get that done to. If the endometrium (lining of uterus) appears excessively thick on ultrasound your doctor will take biopsy from it and send it to lab to see if there is any abnormality.
I hope this helps.
If you have further concerns, I will be happy to answer.
