Irregular Period, Light Pink and Brown Spotting...Are these
Posted: 03-19-06 09:48am

I have been spotting a very very light pink color for several days now. I also feeling like a throbbing coming from inside my cervix. I got a period on the 2nd of March but only for a day, the other three days I spotted alot of brown color. Can this be a sign of early pregnancy.

No, spotting is not a sign of early pregnancy. Lack of menstruation is sign of early pregnancy (although it is not a 100% certain indication of conception). Vaginal bleeding that is not due to menstruation is called "spotting". Sometimes it is very difficult to distinguish spotting from menstruation. Spotting can be a sign of many functional or organic disorders of the reproductive system. Spotting can also indicate miscarriage, if pregnancy occurred. I recommend you take a pregnancy test and visit a gynecologist, no matter the result, to identify the origin of the blood.
