Okay well you woudl think after having 2
kids I would know this.. my last period
was on Jan. 18th ( I am trying to get
pregant again) well I started to have some
bleeding on Feb. 5, and have for about 2
days now but thers is not all the time and
have no bloating or cramping I don't know
if this is implantion bleeding or if it
is a really early period.
In medical circles, doctors believe that
“implantation bleeding” does not
exist. If this bleeding that you are
experiencing is not caused by your period
(menstruation), then it is called
metrorrhagia. Metrorrhagia is not a sign
of pregnancy but can be sign of a
disturbed pregnancy. In your case, it
doesn't seem that you can be pregnant
because your last period was on the 18th
of January.
Metrorrhagia can be due to hormonal
disturbances (functional bleeding), an
infection or tumor (organic bleeding).
You can visit your gynecologist to
identify the true reason for metrorrhagia.
