Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
Stress and exercise can lead to irregular periods.
However, for the spotting, a gynecological opinion is a must.
Endometrial hyperplasia, PCOD should be ruled out.
An internal exam plus pelvic ultrasound and hormonal assay should be done.
FSH, LH, TSH, Prolactin, OGTT, DHEAS, Free testosterone should be done.
Take care.
