What Could Pink Spotting With Delayed Periods And Mild Cramping Indicate?

My implanon birth control expired last month. My period is currently 9 days late. I have very very mild cramping. I have had white vaginal discharge for about a week. Also, today I noticed very light pink coloring on my toilet paper after I peed. My doctor has no available appointments for about 3 weeks but I m so worried.

Hi,

This may indicate a transient hormonal imbalance. Chance of pregnancy is less within a month of expiring implant if it is still there (obviously you need another backup method till renewal).

Anyhow, just get a urine pregnancy test done. If negative, we can wait for 2-3 to get the period. If no bleeding by then, kindly see your doctor for further evaluation.

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

Regards,
Dr. Muhammed Aslam T. K., Pediatrician
