I've been experiencing spotting after my periods for the past year. My doctor mentioned it might be an infection or a polyp in the uterus. Can you help me understand what's going on? I'm worried and just want to know the right reason behind this.

Spotting after periods for 1 year could be due to various reasons, including hormonal imbalances, uterine polyps, or infections like endometritis or pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), and while your doctor suspects an infection and polyp, other possible causes like adenomyosis, fibroids, or cervical lesions should also be considered, so further diagnostic tests like ultrasound, hysteroscopy, or endometrial biopsy may be necessary to determine the underlying cause.

View allI'm a bit worried because my wife's pregnancy test came back positive, but we weren't planning on having another baby right now since our little one is just two years old.

While the risk is extremely low, it's not impossible. Precum can contain sperm, and if it comes into contact with the vagina, pregnancy can theoretically occur. However, the chances are very slim, especially without ejaculation or penetration. According to the American Pregnancy Association, the risk of pregnancy from precum is estimated to be around 1-4%.
