Hello. Thank you for posting.

ECP should be taken as soon as possible and within 72 hours. Some women do experience bleeding or spotting 3-7 days after taking the medication.

Implantation bleeding is typically small pink or brown spots on your underwear that happens 6 to 12 days after conception, lasting about 1 to 2 days.
