Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

The presentation suits implantation and pregnancy. This cannot be ascertained unless tested positive. You must be taking the test early in the morning with the first urine sample. Re-do the test after 5 days from now. In case if it turns out to be negative then you can go for blood HCG estimation which is very accurate and sensitive.

There are chances for it to be due to mere hormonal imbalance, in that case, the blood HCG may come negative and you may resume your periods after few days, if not you might need a detailed evaluation.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.
