Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
You can undergo one home pregnancy test after 2 weeks of last intercourse to rule out conception. Blood test for beta-hCG is more reliable. Irregular spotting may occur with hormonal imbalance, stress, pelvic pathology, over weight, irregular diet etcetera.
Here, you need to consult with gynecologist for other relevant investigation like USG, hormone scan etcetera to pin point the diagnosis. Take suggestive measures accordingly.
Take healthy diet, maintain genital hygiene, control body weight and practice protected sex in future. Good luck.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. S Patra
