Hi I have not gotten my period this month but have been spotting. The last time I had my period was 36 days ago and it was normal (6 days long).This month I began spotting just a day or two before my expected period due date. The spotting is pinkish brown/light red with no flow to it. The spotting has continued just like this for 11 days.I am not on birth control and have not been for the past eight months. I took a home pregnancy test two days ago and it came up negative. Sometimes the length of time between my periods is 28 days and sometime it is 33 days. Could it be that I may be pregnant and may have taken the home pregnancy test to early? Are there any other explanations for no period and prolonged light spotting?

If you haven't been on birth control for that long, there's nothing else I can think of. I suggest taking another test and if you're still spotting but it says negative, go to the doctors. They can give you more accurate results.
