various possibilitie: There are various possibilities... Pregnancy or ectopic pregnancy still may be present ( if sexually active), stress, medications, or other illnesses that effect hormone levels could lead to the presence of spotting instead of a normal period. You might call your primary care provider this week for a follow up apt.
