Hi dear thanks for writing to Health care magic!!
Be relax. It takes minimum of two weeks after stopping of periods for UPT to come positive. Pregnancy can not be decide on UPT alone. Blood beta HCG level and USG are the confirmatory investigation should be done after two weeks and for spotting stays for longer duration then clinical examination required by gynaecologist to check for any trauma, cyst,fibroid or any sign of infection.
Hope this will help you
Thanks and regards
