Q: 

brown spotting instead of period

hi~ I've been having irregular periods for years and it has improved during last two years but then at the end of last year, i didn't have period for almost 4 months. I went to a chinese doctor and went through herbs, acupuncture and massage and I got my period, it was the best period i've had in years, good color and quantity. But then I stopped the treatment. The next two cycles were bizarre. Instead of having period, I had brown spotting for 2-3 years and no period at all. it's brown, not heavy, some blood clots, just need panties.

what can be the reason?
oh... I'm not pregnant and I'm not living with my husband right now.
thanks

hi~ thank you Susan a lot for your thoughtful reply. I went to a acupuncturist when I went back to China for vacation, now i'm back and I need to find another acupuncturist. I'll do some test as well to see what's going on. Thanks again!
