I took a pregnancy test it came out positive but i have been spotting for the last 4 days what does that mean?

"Spotting" with a positive pregnancy test, depending on the duration of the pregnancy may indicate inadequate progesterone, or be from a pregnancy outside the uterus (ectopic). Consult your OB physician for an exam and additional testing (ultrasound) .

Spotting in early pregnancy is not uncommon. You may wish to get serial HCG blood levels to ensure that pregnancy is progressing normally. For info: https://www.pregnancybirthbaby.org.au/hcg-levels
