Is Light Bleeding After Sex Related To Periods Or Pregnancy?

Hi there, I am trying to get pregnant. I usually have a 5 to 6 week cycle. My last cycle started on the 11 December. On January 7th i went to my gynicologist and he told me i was ovulating and to have sex that day and i should probably fall pregnant (so i did). Now today (Jan 14th) I have light bleeding? Could this be my period? Thanks

Hi,Thanks for writing..
I understand your concern..
Get a urine pregnancy test with early morning urine sample.Minimal bleeding in and around the expected time of periods can be implantation bleed. If its positive, consult your doc to get a scan done to see for intrauterine gestational sac. Hope I have answered your queries.. Good day.
