Light bleeding 3 weeks before period, took pregnancy test..

Guest · Guest

I'm curious, well more like scared.. I experienced light bleeding and it has been 2 days since i had intercourse. I took a pregnancy test and the results were negative. I was reading about another woman who had spotting and I'm wondering if I took the test too soon if I should wait until tomorrow then the results might be different because I was still spotting when I took the test or if the results should be accurate and I have nothing to worry about.

Hi! When exactly was your intercourse? At what part of your menstrual cycle?
It is also important to say if your periods were regular or irregular and if you had any unprotected intercourses besides this one.

It seems to me that your light bleeding was just one week after your previous period ended! Is this correct? That would mean that the bleeding you had was just an old blood
and if you are thinking that the bleeding could have been an implantation, I think you may be wrong because implanation usually happens 6-10 days after ovulation i.e. after unprotected sex. However, you never ca be 100% sure with pregnancy.

It is too early for you to have a home pregnancy test, because the hcg hormones can’t be detected yet. They are advised to be taken a day or two after your period hasn’t arrived. If your periods were irregular, the best timing to do a test would be two weeks after unprotected intercourse.

It may just be a delayed or light period

Hi,

I kind of have the same thing so I'm a little concerned. I had my period on 4th June and it seemed fine. But the last two days I've had some light spotting and a little bit of cramping almost like I'm going to get my period. I haven't had sex in four days so I don't think I've torn anything inside so I'm a little concerned. I am on the pill so I'm not sure if this could be the cause of it but I've been on the pill before and never had anything like this before. The light bleeding is almost like when I'm about to start my period but it isn't due until the 4th July. Does anyone have any advice they could offer? Would it be worth doing a pregnancy test just in case?

Many thanks
