Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The spotting and breast tenderness is likely due to the effects of pull only. However, I would also recommend getting a home pregnancy test just to rule out pregnancy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
