Hello,
The way to know if it was implantation bleeding is to have the blood test. BHCG increases enough in blood 11 days after conception which is 5 days after implantation. Thus having a BHCG blood test will be the fastest way to know if the bleeding is due to implantation or not.
I hope this answers your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
