Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Intermenstrual spotting can be seen due to many causes, like :
- Ovulatory bleeding
- Hormonal imbalance leading to irregular shedding of endometrium
-Local causes like cervical polyps etc.
- Thyroid hormonal abnormalities etc.
So, if the spotting subsides and does not repeat no need to worry.
If the continues or recurs, once consult gynecologist and get evaluated.
In that case you may need physical examination, ultrasound, thyroid profile etc investigations.
With this workup the possible cause for your problem can be identified and treated.
Take care.
