Does Hard Coughing Cause A Light Period To Kick In?

I recently noticed spotting or light bleeding even though I am not suppose to be on my period. I recently was sick during the end of December. I never really got rid of my cough and now I find myself sick again..this time coughing and sneezing with a runny nose. ....My main question is can hard coughing cause a light period to kick in? I have no stomach pain.

Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this cough and the spotting. it is very unlikely for cough to cause spotting. If you have never experienced something like this before, i will suggest that you consult your oBGYN to find out if there is any possible explanation to this. Spotting could be related to abnormalities in the menstrual cycle, infections, no clear cause, etc. Only a good examination and investigation would be able to tell what the exact cause is.

I hope this addresses your query fully. Thank you so much for using our services and please feel free to ask for clarifications if need be. I wish you the best of health.
