Light Period vs. Spotting

Hi!

I’m having difficulties trying to figure out how to insert data into Glow.

I recently had 4-5 days of straight spotting — no tampon required. Extremely light. Dark old blood with hints of pink. Now, this bleeding occurred during the time my period was predicted to arrive. I normally bleed mildly heavy for 6-7 days. I am on the pill, have been for awhile, and I am fully aware of the various changes it can do to your cycle.

I want to know what I should be plugging into Glow. The app gives two options to insert my data under: menstruation or spotting.

Is this considered “Menstruation / Spotting” OR “Spotting / Light”?
