General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi my dear,

Spotting at 14 weeks of pregnancy might be a sign of possible:
- low placement of placenta
- trauma during sexual intercourse (if you had it prior to spotting)
- uro-genital infection

Can discuss further with your OG specialist to run:
- abdominal ultrasound
- urine analysis
- vaginal swab testing
- and digital examination

for further evaluation.

Try to avoid sexual intercourse until improvement, and have more rest.

All the best!
