Mid-cycle spotting is not uncommon due to a normal drop in hormones. If you had sex since your last period, do a home pregnancy test if you miss your period by 4-5 days. If the result is negative repeat the test in 4-5 days. Use first morning urine and follow instructions for the test carefully. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time, every time.
