Spotting Between Periods
Women may notice light spotting between periods occasionally throughout their childbearing years. Others will commonly spot during ovulation almost every month. Regular or ongoing spotting between periods that don't coincide with ovulation could be due to low progesterone.
Spotting is defined as a light flow that may require only a small pad. Sometimes, spotting is only seen when a person wipes after using the bathroom, with blood not being seen in the toilet.
