A member asked:

For what reasons was i spotting and then i missed a period?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Heidi Fowler answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Pregnant?: Have you been sexually active? If yes, one possibility is implantation spotting with cessation of period. Take a pregnancy test to find out if you are pregnant.
