How do doctors diagnose the cause of spotting after a period?

Gynaecology Sexual Health

I ended my period 2 weeks ago. I have since noticed some light spotting. How do doctors diagnose the cause of spotting after a period? I had sexual intercourse before ovulation, so I am wondering if it could be a sign of pregnancy.

DOCTOR’S ANSWER (1)

Consistent and regular mid-cycle bleeds may be as a result of Ovulation. Other irregular episodes of bleeding may be due to local cervical lesions like polyps or inflammation of the cervix of bacterial or viral origin. These need to be assessed by your Gynaecologist.
