Is it normal to get spotting after a period?

Spotting such as this is common on the approach to the menopause and may happen on and off for a while.

It can take up to two years for your hormones to fall to such a level that your periods stop permanently and during this time the hormonal changes can trigger in-between bleeds.

However, If you are worried about this at all then do see your doctor.
