How To Recognise Implantation Bleeding?
Question: My husband and I were trying to have become intimate after a very long time. But before he could penetrate, he ejaculated. This happened on 22nd oct. My period is due yesterday(29th October). Instead, I got very thin light Brown colored discharge twice during urination yesterday. I am really confused weather this is an implantation bleeding or a delay in periods bleeding.
Brief Answer:
Get a urine pregnancy test after one week
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, i have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Ejaculation outside the vagina is unlikely to lead to pregnancy.
However, sometimes the semen deposited near the vagina can lead to pregnancy in rare cases. In such a case, it can be implantation bleeding.
I will suggest you to wait for one week, if the proper periods do not occur by one week, then you should get a urine pregnancy test to confirm the diagnosis.
Hope you found the answer helpful. Please do get back for further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards
Brief Answer:
Can be start of periods or implantation bleeding
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, it can be the starting phase of your periods in which the blood flow is a bit less, or rarely can be implantation bleeding.
As I have mentioned earlier, it can be confirmed only after2 weeks of intercourse, or from one week from now.
Hope you found the answer helpful.

Thank you Doctor for you kind reply. This morning at 9 am I spotted some blood in my under wear and assisted myself with a pad. At about 11am when I urinated, Brown color could be spotted in the urine in spite of the pad being clean. The same happened at 2 pm also. I just wanted to convey the symptoms. Could you please explain this?
