Hello,

Scanty blood flow or spotting can be indicative of implantation bleeding. The symptoms can be signs of early pregnancy. Get clinically examined by a gynecologist. Do a urine pregnancy test or blood test (beta hCG) to detect pregnancy. You may be asked to get done USG (uterus and fallopian tube) to detect ectopic pregnancy, pregnancy or any other factor that may be causing you symptoms.

Your management / treatment will depend on the diagnosis made. Take adequate water and fluids to maintain sodium-potassium balance of your system. Take Digene gel (antacid) to get rid of abdominal bloating. Do walking, avoid sedentary lifestyle. Take home-made food rich in iron and protein. The other medical conditions that can cause the symptoms are anemia, thyroid dysfunction, hormonal problems, PCOS, etc.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
