It could be that the supplements are increasing the blow flow down there so everything it's a bit more sensitive? I take these supplements and haven't experienced any spotting but they can affect people differently

How long have you been taking them? I really don’t think they should be having that kind of effect as they are not just fertility supplements but present in lots of multi vitamin formulas etc so it doesn’t make sense to me that if they enhance your fertility it’s at expense of impacting your uterine lining. I have been on all of those (bar insitol) for over a year now and never experienced any spotting.

Yes I wouldn’t think a week in they would be able to give you that kind of spotting.
