Spotting 5 days before my period

Michaela

Hi just need some advice. Last cycle I was 5 days late for my period this cycle in I’m 5 days away from my period and I’ve started spotting when wiping its light pink. Does anyone know what this means does it mean I’m starting period 5 days early as the last two cycles have thrown me off I’m not usually late or early I was hoping to test the day before my period started but I’m thinking I’m already out ☹️
