Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Does Vaginal Spotting Instead Of Periods Indicate?
Supposed to start my period in 2 days but today i went to the bathroom, wiped and there was brown spotting it was more of a watery texture. Put a tampon in to prepare for bed and a few hours later i change it and its a flakey brown on the tampon and not much on it
Sometimes it is normal for a woman to spot a couple of days before periods and this is nothing to worry. If your periods do not come when they are due, then you will need to have a pregnancy test if you are sexually active.
I hope this answers your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Antoneta Zotaj, General & Family Physician
