What Causes Light Bleeding?

Hi. I am a little worried. I am due to start my period anytime in the next week or two but I have started bleeding today. However the blood flow is getting lighter now so looks like it s stopped. Why has this happened? I have the copper coil so I m hoping I can rule out pregnancy.

Hi,

Pregnancy is unlikely, you can go for a urine pregnancy test for reassurance. The bleeding is slight inter-menstrual spotting and will settle by itself.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
