A member asked:
Hi! my period was on time and i felt the usual bloating and cramping but only a little spotting for two days. what could this be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Light bleeding: The main reason for light periods is change in hormone levels. Causes for what seems to be a light period can include: thyroid problems, eating disorders, excessive exercise, initial periods for a girl, use of an intrauterine device, oral contraceptives, perimenopause & implantation bleeding in early pregnancy, which rarely occurs.
