Does weight loss affect a period? possibly pregnant?
I started spotting late yesterday afternoon which was 11 days past when my period was due. It's a brownish/ dark red color and shows up when i wipe. There's a little bit on the pad but you can hardly see it. I did have cramps the last 2-3 days. My period usually gets heavy the morning after it starts and it hasn't yet. I have been feeling more tired and been having headaches. I started a weight loss routine the last week of February til about the 3rd week of March then i slowly stopped. I watched what i ate and walked about 3-4 miles every morning. So it wasn't a shock to my system. I ended up losing 22 lbs in that time frame. I know weight loss can affect a period. Does this sound like implantation bleeding or my period?

Well the first two months of my pregnancy i had a little bleeding around the time of my period. It was brownish red and was ultra light and didn't last no time. I also was in the process of losing weight and even lost an additional 10lbs so i didn't expect pregnancy. Also i was so tired. I would take energy pills but nothing helped. so i say just buy a pregnancy test just to b sure. Other signs soreness in Ur breast and a nauseous feeling. But every woman is different. Good luck
