It could be your weight loss.  If this continues and you know that you are not pregnant you may want to look into the herb Dong Quai.

 

Dong Quai tonifies and strengthens the uterus by regulating hormonal control, improving uterine tone, and improving the timing of the menstrual cycle.

 

In traditional Chinese medicine Dong Quai is referred to as a blood tonic as it has a general effect on circulation. This could be helpful for women experiencing pale menstrual flow, absent periods, and weakness after periods (in TCM this is called blood deficient). It has also been shown to improve red blood cell counts.  This is very helpful for anemic women.

 Read this article to learn more about how Dong Quai may help with scanty periods that seem more like spotting:  http://natural-fertility-info.com/dong-quai-fertility-herb.html
