Yes. Spotting can happen between periods for several reasons. Birth Control pills, ovulation,vaginal dryness or infection and stress can all be contributing factors toward spotting between periods.

Could spotting be the cause of something else besides pregnancy?

Spotting does not cause pregnancy. I assume you mean "does spotting indicate anything other than pregnancy?" The answer to this is, of course, yes. Spotting could indicate spotting. It's probably you period being finicky, or something along those lines.

Is brown spotting at 3 months of pregnancy normal without any cramps or pain?

It is never normal to spot, pink, brown, or red. You should see your doctor as soon as possible. Sometimes spotting can be harmless, but only your doctor can tell you that. It IS normal to spot! Just not in excess or in an increased amount. Spotting alone is not a sign to worry, but when combined with other symptoms, it becomes an issue worth due dilligence. It can take up to six months for your body to recover and balance the hormones from a previous pregnancy. I would have it checked out but I suspect that the spotting is hormonal in nature and related to the homeostatic balancing that your body is undergoing.


Could spotting 17 days after your cycle and after having a tubal ligation 4 months ago be a sign of pregnancy even if you've had two previous normal cycles?

Spotting at mid-cycle could be a sign of just about anything from pregnancy, to a fibroid tumor, or other medical conditions. In short, check with your OB-GYN.


Is brown spotting after sex whilst in the first trimester of pregnancy normal?

Yes! Light pink or brown spotting after sex is normal. During pregnancy, the cervix becomes more filled with blood. Sex can irritate the cervix and cause some bleeding. Of course, if you are worried or have any other questions call your doctor. Heavy bleeding, bleeding with pain or cramping, or bleeding that doesn't stop can mean something is seriously wrong. Call your doctor or go to the emergency room if this happens.

Spotting alone is not an indication of pregnancy, you would have to have other symptoms to tie it in. It could be a sign of implantation. I would wait for more symptoms or a late AF before assuming PG.


Is spotting normal during 22nd week of pregnancy?

During pregnancy, Its always better to bring any unusual happening to your Doctor. Bleeding or spotting in pregnancy is never good unless its been discussed with your Doc. If they say nothing to worry, you can relax. If you are still not satisfied and feel that something is wrong, you can always consult to some other experienced doc. During 22nd week, in extreme case spotting may be the signal to pre-term labor. I would always recommend to consult with doc rather than ignoring and keep worrying. -Van.

Can you conceive a day before your period and experience spotting?

You can conceive at any time throughout your cycle, including during your menstrual period. Spotting generally occurs during implantation and other times throughout a pregnancy. Spotting can also occur just before or just after a menstrual period. If you are concerned you may be pregnant, you should obtain a pregnancy test.
