What could be the reason of pre menstrual spotting that is 3 days before my expected period.i am using condom as a contraceptive .?

2 things: 1) could be a variation of normal (no big deal). 2) could be pregnant. Wait until the a day or two after your period is due and if you still haven't started your period, check a urine pregnancy test. Remember condoms are not 100% effective, especially if is applied after any contact between you and the man..... Good luck.
