Answer deanna;
about 5% of women will experience spotting-a light staining of blood-regulary with ovulation. the key to this harmless kind of spotting doctors,say is that it happens almost every month near middle of your menstrual cycle. often this spotting is accompanied by mild pain on the right or left side of the abdomen.
however in some women,lack of ovulation,which causes the uterine lining to grow thicker and then shed small areas of tissue at different times,may also be a cause of the spotting;
do to your working out,this could be the cause,due to hormones changes. your doctor will have to diagnose and prescribe treatment for the unexplained spotting.
