Is it possible for my period to be an implantation bleed?
Patient: I had a miscarriage at 14 weeks on March the 17 (about a month and a half now) after 4 weeks i got what i think is a period on April 17th…i am currently trying to conceive again however my period was VERY light and only lasted about three days of spotting. i took 2 pregnancy tests which came up with a very faint line twice i took one at a clinic yesterday and they said it was negative was the lines evaporation lines or is it possible that my period was an implantation bleed and i am too early to test? what are my chance of being pregnant on this cycle? Doctor: Hi there , I have understood your concern. I will suggest you the best possible treatment options. Sorry to hear about your previous pregnancy loss. If you have delayed periods and your pregnancy test is negative, then you can simply wait for a week and test it again. I will suggest you to get morning's first sample of urine tested for pregnancy. In case of doubt blood beta HCG test and USG will be of help. In case you still have negative pregnancy test, you can simply wait for the onset of periods or induce the periods with progesterone tablets. Your treating doctor can guide you further about the same. As you might be aware that implantation bleeding occurs about 7 days after the ovulation day.  So please wait for at least 10 days after you have suspected of the implementation bleeding, and then you can check for the pregnancy. Plesse start on Folic acid, Vitamin B 12 and Omega 3 supplements at least 3 months before you plan to get pregnant. This helps to prevent many problems during pregnancy and delivery. I hope this answer helps you. Thanks. Dr. Purushottam Neurgaonkar. .
