Why do i keep spotting ?

So for the last couple of days I’ve been spotting off and on. I assumed my period was coming but it hasn’t yet. So then I assumed it was probably my endometriosis acting up because I later stopped bleeding. Now last night my husband and I were having sex and I started spotting again during sex. Can someone please tell me why I might be going through this ?

It could be a fibroid especially if you also have heavy bleeding during your period. Another possibility is a simple hormonal imbalance.  Producing too much progesterone, for example, causes this.  Not uncommon.  I'd see your ob/gyn who can do some blood work to check your levels and an exam to look for fibroids if they are present.  Can you see the doctor for this?

You might have a fibroid. Have you had an ultrasound recently?
