Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Are The Symptoms And Treatment For Implantation Bleeding?
I am not sure if what I experienced was implantation bleeding. I was supposed to start on the 24th this month but on the 19th I had a gush of blood which I thought was my period. I had been sexually active on the 31st of January by the way. Anyway, after that gush my bleeding began to slow down A LOT. It was sort of a pinkish, bright red kind of color and I was either spotting and or lightly bleeding for the next few days. I had what looked like a brown discharged that I seen whenever I wiped. I thought if it was implantation it should stop within a day or so. But the spotting last for 5 days. The cramps I had during that bleeding wasnt as near as bad as my usual cramps. My boobs are VERY sore and sensitive and I have been getting nauseous a lot lately. I am not quite sure if I am pregnant due to how long the bleeding lasted and the initial burst of blood at the beginning. But it did indeed look a lot like implantation and had a brown discharge. It did not seem like my normal period at all, especially when I was seeing about 3 little spots of blood on my pad on day 3. What would you expect is going on?

HI, I understand your concern. Implantation bleeding is around the expected day of menses .. it is slight spotting for few hours mostly. Some times it may remain longer. IT's not likely to be in form of a gush of blood. but it can be implantation bleeding. Even your signs of sore breastrs, nausea favor conception OR hormonal imbalance. So go for urine pregnancy test( after 8 days of expected day of periods ( ie- 2nd ) . as that only would confirm the presence/absence of pregnancy. Thanks.
