Question : I'm having what I think is implantation bleeding, the bleeding is very light kinda like spotting it's brown or brownish red and it is very dried up blood and there is some gooeyness along with it I'm having slight light cramps but only in my left side of my lower abdominal. I've been feeling off lately and have odd on and off pregnancy symptoms so I'm not really sure what is going on I just need an opinion of what this might be?

Pregnancy is possible

Detailed Answer:
Hi

I Understand your concerns.

Symptoms you described could be of pregnancy possibly though not hundred percent sure.

I suggest you get serum beta hCG blood test done after one week to confirm pregnancy.

Let me know if you need anymore help.
