Is A Light Period A Sign Of Pregnancy?

I have a question. Related to the female menstraul cycle and pregnancy. This month I have had intercouse days before my ovulating period and during and the day I was supposed to get my period. I was supposed to get my period on Sunday January 29, but it didnt came and on monday it didnt arrive either but on Tuesday it came but not normally like it does other months. Normally my menstrual cycle is dark red and a really heavy flow. But when I got it, it was like a bright red and it was light, I am still bleeding but I have been reading that it could be Implantation Bleeding and that it lasts about two days, and right now it s seems to appear to be ending, and I don t know whether it is my period or Implantation Bleeding. Sometimes I think even though I have intercourse, I wont be able to get pregnant. I need help.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Implantation bleeding occurs 5-6 days after the day of the ovulation. It is unlikely to occur at around the time of periods. You can get a urine pregnancy test done to confirm the pregnancy and get further treatment accordingly.

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