Is Brown Spotting caused by Implantation Bleeding? Posted: 03-17-06 06:18am
I had a cycle for Feb on the 20th and I
ovulated on the 7th of this month and had
intercourse on the 6th. On the 11th I
experienced spotting that went from a
color of brownish pink to just a brownish
discharge. It came back on the 13th and it
also came back yesturday (the 16th) the
spotting is only enough were I can see it
when I wipe myself and by the time I wipe
again its going away. Is this implantation
bleeding considering everything else I
just stated happen before this.
"Implantation bleeding” doesn’t
exist!!! Implantation occurs 8-10 days
after ovulation... if conception has
occurred. You can take a home pregnancy
test to verify or exclude a pregnancy. You
should also visit your gynecologist to
identify the origin of the spotting
you’ve described.
