What does it mean when you start spotting 10 days after ending your period could this person be pregnant?

Not necessarily: If you are concerned about pregnancy, you should a home pregnancy test, if you miss your next period by 4-5 days. Use first morning urine and follow the instructions in the kit carefully.

Always possible: While this is possible and a pregnancy test should be checked, women often have a small amount of spotting mid-cycle with ovulation related to a brief, abrupt drop in estrogen levels.

Many possibilities: Including pregnancy, which is very easy to test for with a home test or test in your doctors office. But spotting can be due to many different things from stress, to ovarian cysts, to polyps, to fibroids. It would be impossible to say without more information.
