Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
Spotting may be caused by the following gynecological conditions:
-Pregnancy
-Hormonal imbalances/contraception
-Infections(STI or PID)
-Post sex spotting
-Pelvic masses less likely
Since no other symptoms, i will suggest you take a pregnancy test and observe.If the test comes positive, then no need to be worried.If negative, the cause will have to be investigated if it happens again.In the meantime, watch for other gynecological symptoms like lower abdominal pain and funny vaginal discharges.If any of these, you see a Gynecologist for evaluation and an STI work-up.
Hope my answer will help you
Best regards
