Is this Implantation bleeding?

I am 11 DPO, I have seen a few drops of light red blood, but I have only one drop on the pad I have been wearing all day. Yesterday I saw a light pink tint only when wiping. I usually get my period very early, 9DPO, so I am late according to this, but all pregnancy tests I have taken are negative. I have other symptoms, fatigue, tender breasts, and headaches. I have been TTC for over a year and just recently had a labrascopic procedure to remove endometriosis, so nothing for me ever seems easy! Any insight would be appreciated.

Hello Anonymous,
I can appreciate the complications which you are faced with.
Implantation bleeding normally occurs a week to a few days before your period would normally start. Spotting that occurs around a week after ovulation is likely implantation bleeding, whereas, spotting that occurs very close to the time that your period would normally start may not be.

I suggest you wait and see if the spotting picks up to heavier bleeding. If you don't start your period within seven days, re-test.
If you are still concerned, consult your gynecologist, who knows your history.
