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.
