Hello,
I understand your concern. Spotting, vaginal bleeding between periods, can occur due to a hormonal balance mid cycle, stress or more serious causes. Therefore, I would recommend you see a doctor to get a check up and an ultrasound in order to correctly diagnose the cause of bleeding. Wishing you all the best.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
