How To Differentiate Between Implantation Bleeding And Menstrual Discharge?

Dear Doctor, I think i am pregnant but was waiting for a missed period to be sure. However, i have had bleeding today which is my period due date. So, i am not sure if it is just a normal period or could it be implantation bleeding that occurs in 2 weeks of conception. Please advise

Hi,

You can go for a urine pregnancy test (UPT) to check whether you are pregnant or not.

You cannot differentiate whether the bleeding is withdrawal bleeds or not.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
