A member asked:

I started bleeding 4 days early n it wasn't normal stoped after 4 days now i've been spotting for the past few days... what could it be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to tell: Are you sure you're not pregnant? If not, then take a pregnancy test. Abnormal bleeding can be from all sorts of other things: infections, medications, stress, travel, changes in your weight, to name a few. If it happens again next month, i'd see a doctor.
