Implantation Bleeding or Period – How to Recognize It
Hi am esther l had period from 14 -17 had sex on 18th I started experiencing some blood yesterday night till now can l be pregnant?
Hello Esther, you could be pregnant but the way to determine this is by taking a pregnancy test. All the best.
Hi. I use the flow period tracker so i take note of everything. My period ended on the 3rd of this month. Had sex a few times afterwards. Period tracker shows that my next predicted period date is 26th of this month so i have two more days. However late yesterday when i went to use the washroom n i wipe i saw light pink blood. What can this be a sign of.. I have also been trying for more than 3 years so i already think of it as a normal period. Don’t get my hopes up too high anymore
Hello Amira, I am hoping that this means you are pregnant! If your period does not come after 7 days from being due then take a pregnancy test! Wishing you all the best.
Thanks. However it was my period it came on the same day i sent this message.
My last cycle was January 6th it’s now February 23rd and I still haven’t seen anything also I had spotting for one day the last week of January I’m not sure which day
Hi Celest, I would recommend a pregnancy test if you haven’t taken one yet. Then you can consider what other things in your life could have been the culprit for your period being late. Are you normally regular?
Hi my last period was on 26th January.. But this month I got a few spots on 22nd Feb..and today I had moderate cramps and blood flow to fill my pad fully..what it could be? I have been planning for pregnancy for past 6months..pls help..
Hi Nani’s, I would generally say that the spotting on the 22nd could have been implantion bleeding, however since you had your period (was it a full period) you might not be pregnant. Did you take a pregnancy test? If it was a regular period then I wouldn’t be surprised for a negative. I would recommend tracking your period or using ovulation tests to try and plan for the best times to have sec with your significant other. Good luck.
Hello
My January 2018 flow stopped on the 16th and I have a cycle of 28 days. I started feeling lower abdomen cramps from on the 10th of Feb, but I saw blood stain on the 16th Feb and a heavy flow 17th, normal flow 18th, heavy flow 19th and drop on 20th along with lower abdomen cramp. I tested today 21st and It’s negative It’s 7 months into my marriage could I be pregnant or what am? I am confused because I have cramps. Please help. Thank you
Hi Blessing, It sounds like your normal period. Cramps are a normal part for many women. Plus based on your dates, if you have a 5 day cycle, your February period came right on time. If you are trying to get pregnant try and track your periods and ovulation days with our app found here: https://womanjunction.com
Hi, good day.
I missed my 1st day of period (Feb.21) then the following day i had spotting.
I never had this exp since i always have 1-2days advance menstrual cycle.
Is this an early sign of pregnancy or just miss calculated.
May last day of menstrual period was Jan.28 & have an average cycle period of 25-26days (that comes every month).
Pls help.
Thank you.
Hi Zhelle, you would calculate your period from the first day of your last cycle not the last day so that could account for a miscalculation. However, that being said, If you are experiencing a lighter than normal period you could be seeing implantation bleeding. I would wait at least seven days and take a pregnancy test if it is not the same as your usual period.
Hi
I had a period on January 26 to jan 30..I was artificial inseminated on feb 8th and now I have a period as of today the 21st is there still a chance of me being pregnant..please help
Hi Shields, is this period like a normal period, lighter than a normal period, spotting? If it’s either of the latter you could be experiencing implantation bleeding but the only way to know if you are pregnant is to take a pregnancy test, which you can take one now but I would probably wait until the end of the weekend to do. Good luck and baby dust your way!
Hi! I have felt as if my period is coming for the last 3 weeks , to the point that I put on a pad and kept wearing pads the whole time. I was due for my period on the 17 and started bleeding yesterday (20th). The bleeding yesterday was almost entirely only when i wiped but some came out into the toilet as well. Id say that it doesnt to seem to have alot of clots but it is decently red to reddish brown in color. On a side note my mother says she had two “periods” while pregnant with me.
Hi Nicole, Spotting or a lighter than normal period could be implantation bleeding. I would wait until the end of the week or beginning of next week and take a pregnancy test, especially if it’s not the same as what you normally experience.
Hello,
My wife went to the doctor and was told that she’s pregnant. Her period ended on 22nd of January 2018. yesterday she came back from work and was complaining about light pain on her abdominal , her legs were swollen and she had light dark blood discharge. this morning we notice that the swollen leg has gone down, she no longer feel the pain on her abdominal but she still had a little bit of blood discharge coming out again. the bleeding is not heavy but enough to fill up one pad. We did a pregnant test today using a test kit we brought and it says Negative. could it be she had miscarriage ? or is this normal?
Hello caring husband, I would recommend calling the doctor. WHile spotting can sometimes happen (which can be described by only seeing it when she wipes) bleeding that fills a pad is cause for concern and I would contact the doctor. Best wishes and good luck.
Hi,
I’m 25 years old. I’m supposed to be having menses on 25 feb but it came on 15 feb.
On 6th day, it still bleeds and reducing by 10-20%.
Took pregnancy test but it was negative.
I got heavy migraines too. Is this serious? Do I need to see doctor?
Thanks.
Hi Emma, while migraines don’t have anything to do with your period coming at a different time (although they are litterally a pain) they could be a result of fluctuations in your hormones. A period coming early can happy due to multiple things, stress, weight changes (generally weight gain), changes in your medications, etc. Keep track of your periods in order to determine if they are regular or not and if you are concerned with them, make an appointment with your doctor. Some women however are very sensitive to the changes in hormones and a doctor may be able to help you manage your migraines as well.
Hi I’m Kita I have a problem I had my last period last month on the 24 and my length is 22 days,yesterday I saw brown blood coming out I’m very confused plz help
Hi Kita, Based on the calendar you should be around the time of getting your next period, especially with a 22 day cycle. If it’s light, only lasts for a a short while, even light pink to dark brown rusty colored. So it could indeed be implantation bleeding. I would recommend a pregnancy test.
Hi please, my period came 4days earlier than it should and I had sex a day before what could be the cause
Right last month I had unprotected sex with my partner on the 15th Jan had a 2 day bleed on the 18th.
Were now 17th Feb and no period I tested couple weeks ago negative so not sure if it was too early.
I’ve got symptoms like tired all the time. Feeling sick and backache. Should I wait for this month to end then retest
Hi Jess, the best time to test for pregnancy is 7 days after a missed period.
Hello!!! I just hady periods on 29 Jan, and now again I’m having light bleeding after several hours… Is that periods again? I’m having pcos as well.. Just got married two months later… Am I expecting? I’m really confused.
Please help
Hello Cynthia, please read about the possible reasons why bleeding between periods happen here: https://womanjunction.com/spotting-between-periods/
I’m 36 yrs and three years of trying to conceive. I had a period on January 24 and on February 12 I’m menstruating again, is that normal.
Hi Glory, Is it like a regular period or lighter than usual? It could be ovulation bleeding, seems too soon to be implantation bleeding. But if you have been trying for three years I would recommend seeing your doctor to have them check to see if anything is wrong. If you have irregular period you might not know when you are actually ovulating. Good luck!
I’m confused with the same problem 😄
Hi I was due on my period on the 8th of Feb and come on 2 days early on the 6th Feb only lasted two days very light and not much on pad mostly when I wiped, I’ve just done a pregnancy test and it said negative, what can it be?
Also have I tested to early with only stopping very light bleeding last night?
Hello Ashleigh, you can retest for pregnancy in 7 days just to confirm.
