Is Light Pink Spotting During Periods Suggestive Of Implantation Bleeding?

Hi, I have had my last menstrual cycle started 20th-25th of June this year but nothing since. I had light pink spotting on the 8th and again tonight the 17th. Myself and my partner have been still having intercourse.. Could it be implantation bleeding? I have been very emotional lately, very tired, cramps on and off, backache, sore breasts, i am currently waiting on hormonal blood tests to come back but in the meantime can you give me any advice or if you think there is a chance I could be pregnant? We have been TTC. If so how far along would I be and when would i be due? Thank you.

Hello,

Light pink spotting could be implantation bleeding but not all may experience it. It commonly occurs 14-15 days after conception.

You have backache, soreness of breast, fatigue & tiredness presently. You are suggested to stop being anxious & wait to observe if you miss your period this month.

If you do not get your periods, you should wait for at least 10-12 days & get a pregnancy test done.

HCG shows up earlier in the blood, it may get detected in the urine -4 days after it can be detected in the blood. You can get physically examined by a gynecologist, to confirm your pregnancy.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K, General & Family Physician
