spotting/discharge

hello, ladies. i have irregular periods. since i had a daughter four years ago, i am lucky if i have had four periods in four years. usually, i may have some spotting, but that is it and it is not every month. my doctor has known about it and said to lose a little weight and it will come back. i am only 26 years old. i do not feel the this is right and know they say i have a thickened uterus wall. well, my question is if i start to have some spotting or bleeding, then i am ok and do not need to worry about the possiblities that showed up on my ultrasound, right?what happens if i start to spot around my doctor's apointment. they can not perform an exam? i believe i am starting to spot and am worried the doctor will not be able to do anything for me.
