Question 1

saw brown stain spotting 6 days before period is that sign pregnency

Accepted Answer

No: This is old menstrual blood mixed with vaginal and cervical mucous.

Question 2

haven't had period an having pregnacy symptons with light spotting. is this a sign of pregnacy?

Accepted Answer

Spotting; pregnant?: The light spotting may be your cycle this month. No woman has completely predictable regular cycles all the time. But, of course the best way to find out is to check a home pregnancy test since some women do have spotting early in their pregnancy. Early pregnancy symptoms can feel a lot like premenstrual symptoms, so just take the test to be sure.

Question 3

very light spotting 3 days after unprotected sex. period not due for 9 days. i have 4 kids, 8 total pregnancies. what could this be?

Accepted Answer

Breakthrough bleed: is a possibility due to hormone fluctuations; however, with unprotected sexual intercourse, I suggest a pregnancy test and if  negative, a GYN exam.

Question 4

light spotting on 3rd day after unprotected sex, cramping 5 days (from that 3rd day & on), period not due for another 7 days. 8 pregnancies, 4 kids.

Accepted Answer

Spotting: Irregular bleeding and spotting is very common. An Obgyn can evaluate you for infections, polyps, hormonal changes if this continues. If you think you might be pregnant check then check a home pregnancy test. If you do not wish to be pregnant again consider starting birth control

Question 5

i had some spotting on 25 th april when i expected a period but it was scanty & lasted only 2 days. i have conducted urine pregnacy test on 5th may. b?

Accepted Answer

Irregular menses: It might possibly have been a very light period. If your have irregularity for 3 cycles would have it medically assessed.

Question 6

i had what i think was period on 4/13 and i was spotting for 8 days took 6 pregancy test all negative took one last week it was negative ?

Accepted Answer

Pregnant ?: If your periods are usually regular, and pregnancy is possible, obtain a serum HCG test to be certain, b/c the hormone produced in a pregnancy outside the uterus (ectopic) is not enough to cause a positive in a home test, but will be detected by an HCG test.
If negative, see your gyn provider for an exam and other testing.

Question 7

after my period i have been spotting for 4 days and i took a pregnacy test and it came negative what could be the causing for the spotting?

Accepted Answer

Does not mean: anything. if it persists it means hormone imbalance.
in that case your doctor can help you

Question 8

if you have light spotty bleeding for three months during the time of your period that lasts 5-7 days should u worry about pregnancy? virgin, scared?

Accepted Answer

No: If you haven't had sex then you have nothing to worry about regarding possible pregnancy.  If you are having irregular periods, then most likely due to your hormones, estrogen and progesterone.  It sounds as if the period is normal, only lighter than usual.  This is perfectly okay.

Question 9

light pink spotting after going toilet could it be uti or pregnacy? took  test on 7'march came back negative haven't had a period since 22'jan!

Accepted Answer

Anovulation: If u haven't had a period in that long, it sounds like u didn't ovulate.  In most women that would cause excess build up of the uterine lining that could result in breakthrough bleeding (the spotting).  That's most likely cause, but many possible causes: uti, yeast infections, stds,  early pregnancy , just to name a few.

Question 10

my period this month is very light spotting only , colour was black then brown then pink.its more than 7 days now . it can be pregbancy or hormonal ?

Accepted Answer

Prob irreg period: Sounds like an irregular period. Brown usually means old blood that has been sitting at the back of the vagina. If this is not typical for you then track your cycles for the next few months to see if they normalize. Often things get back to normal the next cycle.
