Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about spotting you are experiencing. Spotting can be caused by several different conditions like infections in the cervix, vaginal, hormonal irregularities, no identifiable cause, etc. However, I you are expecting your menses anytime soon, then there is no reason to worry about and ore so because you are not reporting any other symptoms. Treat it as your menses and only get to seek future medical attention if it clearly distinguishes itself from your menses or other symptoms like bad odor, pains, fever, etc should come on.

I hope you find this helpful. Thank you so much for using our services and please do feel free to ask for clarifications if need be. I wish you the best of health.
