What Causes Early Menstruation With Vaginal Spotting?

Hello.. So my mind is doing wonders right now because I m not supposed to have my period for 5 days and I m spotting lightly today a light red/pink color with no clots or anything. And my periods are never abnormal and I already have short periods every 23/24 days. Me and my boyfriend have unprotected sex every night so I m wondering could this be implantation bleeding? Or could it be something serious? Jw considering I have a possibility of being pregnant and don t want something to be wrong with my baby if so.

Understand your concern.
Following are the cause of your problem:
1. VAGINAL WALL TRAUMA: it contain atrophied endothelial lining of vagina.
so little blood due to trauma mix with cervical mucus form it pinkish colour
It indicate disturbance in blood vessels integrity
Sexual intercourse precipitate microfissure and frets in vessels lead to bleeding.
It can be prevented by using lubrication during intercourse.
But if it is associated with pain indicate urethral dysfunction
2.Precancerous condition in cervix: Atrophied cervix get easily damage due to trauma and produce pinkish blood due to mixed with cervical mucus
3. Endo metrial dysplasia
4. Cervical polyp
5. Fibroids
6. Ovarian cyst
7. Hormonal imbalance
8. Excessive stress
9. Excessive weight loss/gain

So it might be a trauma to vaginal wall

Do the following test:
1. Pelvic examination
2. Pelvic USG
3. Hysteroscopy
4. PAP smear

You should maintain hygiene and keep vaginal area dry.
wash by using warm water with added salt.
Wear loose cotton underwear.
Take healthy diet

Hope this may help you
Wish you good health
