A member asked:

Very light spotting for 2 days now. period due any day now. weaned baby this week. never had this spotting before period. what is causing it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hormonal: It may be "hormonal in nature due to recent weaning of your baby. I would not worry, just wait until your periods establish their normal routine.
