Are Spotting And Frequent Urination After Unprotected Intercourse Symptoms Of Implantation Bleeding?

Hi, I had unprotected sex 3 times a month after stopping birth control. Then I had light bleeding for 3 days with spotting at the time of my expected period. During that time, I had protected sex, and so far I am late. My period was due to start on sunday and the only symptoms I have are fatigue, frequent urination, and mood swings. Could the spotting and 3 days of light bleeding be implantation bleeding?

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
After stopping birth control pills, most of the times, menstrual cycle comes back to normal. Few of them might experience like you are having symptoms like spotting during the time of periods for a couple of cycles.
It is difficult to predict from your symptoms that the spotting what you are having along with the other associated symptoms to be due to implantation bleeding or not.
However, kindly wait for 2 to 3 weeks and take a urine pregnancy test, which would tell you about the status. In case you still have doubt regarding being pregnant, you can consult Gynecologist for clinical examination to confirm about it.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
