Could Very Little, Brown And Red Bleeding During Periods With History Of Having Unprotected Sex Be Implantation Bleeding?
I Had unprotected sex, on one of my ovulation days (the 17th). A few days later i had a light pink streak when i wiped. Now i ts been 12 days and i started bleeding. I started the bleeding yesterday. It s no where near the amount of even a light period, as its very little. It started off as very dark, brown, and has faded to a murky red to a bright red. I was wandering if this could be considered to be implatation bleeding.? Also I am due to start my period around the 4th (Friday). When would be the best time to take a home pregnancy test and receive the most accurate results?

Hello,
The spotting you experienced could very well be implantation bleeding. The best time to take home pregnancy test would be at least a week after missed period. It is best to do the pregnancy test with first-morning urine sample.
