Hi.

I would suggest watching and observing the bleeding pattern. If it continues to remain mild and lasts about 1-3 days then there are chances this could be an implantation bleed, in which case your friends would have been right.

Either way, go about an early morning pregnancy test using your early morning urine sample at least 2 weeks from the date of having unprotected sexual contact.

Best wishes
