Is Pinkish Watery Vaginal Discharge An Indication Of Implantation Bleeding?

default
Posted on Wed, 19 Apr 2017
Question: Hello,
This month I had unprotected sex with my partner a day after I ovulated. It is now two days before my period starts, and I thought I had started my period early. When actually it is just pinkish watery discharge. This month I noticed that I had watery discharge which I never had before, makes me feel like I peed on myself. The pinkish discharge stops and then it is just watery discharge. I always have sore breast and cramps before my period so it is difficult for me to see any changes other than the pinkish and watery discharge.

Brief Answer:
The bleeding is a very nonspecific sign as not necessarily is implantation

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thank you for using Healthcaremagic to post your health query.
I read carefully your question and I understand your concern.

If your question is, if all what you are describing are symptoms of pregnancy, then I cannot give you a true answer.

It is true that in the day of implantation (the 8-10th day after sexual intercourse which results in pregnancy) can happen this pink/brownish discharge. But together with all the other symptoms it is a very nonspecific symptoms.

The only secure sign of pregnancy is the level of the bHCG hormone in the blood and after few days in the urine. So to confirm pregnancy, you can go these days and do a level of this hormone in the blood, or wait for 5-7 days and do a pregnancy test in the urine.

Hope this is helpful and that I answered your question.
Let me know if you need more clarifications or have other questions or concerns.

Regards,
Dr. Papaqako
