Brief Answer:
Implantation bleeding

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for additional information.

I saw the picture.

Spotting and mucous discharge now could be implantation bleeding. Means the embryo is getting successfully implanted. This is a good sign.

I don't see any reason to worry.

There is good chance of pregnancy this time.

Thank you Doctor for your reply. Sir, one of reason of my worry is that this time I am not feeling or noticed any breast change sign till today (day 11) which was felt significantly in my 1st cycle. Another reason of my worry is that I have felt cramping just onece in day 3 of IVF after that no cramping. Fatigue is starting on day 8 till today..... Please advice me Doctor, I am really worried about it.

Thank you Doctor for your advice and support. Sir, today afternoon also I have seen some brown spots (just two spots). My query is that if these could be implantation bleeding how long it may occur and up to what limit it could be considered as implantation bleeding?

Brief Answer:
Implantation bleeding

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

This spotting seems to be implantation bleeding.

Such mild spotting in and off is more indicative of implantation bleeding.

There is no upper limit to say when this might stop. There is nothing to worry. Let's wait for beta hCG day and worry.

Let me know if you need anymore help.
