What Causes Brown Vaginal Spotting?

I had my regular period on the 18th of December, then around the 7th or 8th of January I had brown spotting which only showed when I wiped. It lasted for about 2 or 3 days. I haven t had my period but yesterday I started having the brown spotting again?

Hi
Welcome to healthcare magic.
If you had previously normal periods and if you are sexually active then you have to rule out pregnancy.
Carry out a home pregnancy kit test on your urine sample.
Some times abnormal pregnancy like ectopic pregnancy can present like this and may create lots of bad consequences.
It is highly advisable to get your self clinically assessed after the urine test.
Take care.
