Brief Answer:
Not normal

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand the concerns.
Vaginal spotting is not normal at any age group.
It can be due to infection, vaginal polyp, cervical lesions or endometrial pathology.
I will suggest you to consult an OBGYN specialist for proper examination, investigations including pap smear, and ultrasound and get appropriate treatment timely.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
