Question : Feel down several stairs a week and a half ago and started light spotting a few days ago.
Brief Answer:
Unrelated to trauma
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand the concerns.
Falling down from stairs or any trauma is unlikely to induce periods.
It can be due to hormonal disturbance or any local lesions in cervix or vagina.
I will suggest you to consult an OBGYN specialist for proper examination and treatment accordingly.
Pap smear and ultrasound is advised to confirm the diagnosis.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
