Q: 

Implantation bleeding?

I'm wondering how soon after sex can implantation bleeding occur. My SO and I had unprotected sex (no condom, just the pill) on Friday Saturday and Sunday. Then Tuesday (3-5 days later) I noticed a small tinge of pinkish red bleeding on the tp when I wiped. This bleeding increased slightly to stain my underwear with a patch the size of a 50cent piece but was still only just visible on the tp. I put in my diva cup and when I took it out and wiped it there was slight pinky milky blood around the rim but that's it. The bleeding was gone after about 6 hours later.

Hello ACash113,

Welcome to the EmpowHER community.

This could be implantation bleeding, which occurs about six to 12 days following conception. It happens when the fertilized embryo implants in the lining of the uterus.

It is pink to brown spotting, lasts about two to three days and goes away on its own.
It never increases to a flow.

Regards,
Maryann

Hi

Is it normal having a large wet, slippery, clear or white discharge? it starts from Monday until now (Wednesday). This Tuesday and now (Wednesday) every morning I got this kind of discharge when I poop. And I got tender breast.

Is it means I'm ovulating? Is there any chance of getting pregnant? We had protected but the condom ripped off. He didn't ejaculate in me, but I think there s pre cum in me but he urinated before we did it after 2 days my period was due.

Hello Anonymous,

Sounds like you might be ovulating.

When should I take a test to find out for sure?

Hello ACash113,

If you do not have a period this month, test at the end of the month.

Hello ACash113,

Consider speaking with your gynecologist about all that has happened. A blood pregnancy test may be suggested before you resume taking your birth control pills.
