Hello Anonymous,

Yes, you can still test even if you are spotting. The pregnancy test will detect hCG. Any blood will not affect the testing. I don't know if you are pregnant. The only way to know is to test for pregnancy. You could always contact your physician, schedule an appointment, and have a blood pregnancy test done.

Hello Anonymous,

I would have thought that it would be too early in your menstrual cycle to conceive on June 9 or June 10. But, the spotting sounds a lot like implantation bleeding. Implantation bleeding occurs about 9 days after fertilization. The fertilized egg implants itself in the lining of the uterus. This is required for the fetus to continue to grow.

I suggest you take a home pregnancy test. Levels of hCG, which is the hormone produced only during pregnancy, can be detected in urine about 12 to 14 days following conception. You can test anytime now.

Please keep us updated.
