I started spotting today.. I have been feeling very tired and dizzy lately...my period was jan 13th and im not expected to have another one until feb 9th... i took a digital pregnancy test today and it was negative.. is it possible that this is implantation bleeding and still too early to detect through a pregnancy test? please help.. thanks
Hi Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic! Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully gone through your case, and I think I have understood your concern. I will try to address your medical concerns and would suggest you the best of the available treatment options.
I will suggest to wait at least till your expected date of periods. Doing home tests before that will be too early and inconclusive.
Implantation bleeding occurs 7 to 10 days after the day of ovulation. But vaginal spotting can be due to cervical polyp or erosion also, you need to get it confirmed after gynec check up. I hope my answer helps you. Thanks. Wish you great health. Dr Purushottam
