Hi,
Welcome to Ask a Doctor. I am Dr Ramadevi Wani. I will be answering your concerns today.
Have you had an ultrasound scan done before. If it is just spotting, and the scan done earlier is normal, you need not worry. If the bleeding is more/ associated with pain or cramps, it is better to consult your doctor for a ultrasound scan and treatment accordingly.
Best wishes.
